RESORT OPERATIONS
DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS
The US-China trade war and the Indonesia Presidential
elections have caused great uncertainties to business in
Indonesia. While our revenues rose by around 7%, we are
reporting a loss of $222 million for 2019. Without trying
to minimize this result, we would encourage you to read
this annual report carefully to understand the underlying
conditions of our company rather than been overwhelmed by
this headline numbers. In addition, since both our subsidiaries
PT Indomobil Sukses International Tbk (stock code: IMAS)
and its rental, logistics and financing subsidiary PT Indomobil
Multi Jasa Tbk (stock code: IMJS) are listed on the Indonesian
Stock Exchange – we encourage you to download their
annual reports and analyst coverage reports.
As you read through this annual report, you will see that
a significant portion (over $200 million) of the $222 million
loss derived from non-cash items, including both recurring
(such as depreciation and adjustment due to difference in
accounting standards of our Indonesia subsidiaries) and
one-off adjustment (such as write-down of goodwill). Our
cash and cashflow is still good. Our balance sheet remains
asset rich. We have reduced holding company debt by an
additional 10%. That being said, we do not look lightly at this
significant loss. We are, and continue to be, very pro-active
in managing our businesses efficiently to move to a profit-
making position as soon as possible. Therefore, we would
like to take this opportunity to share with you some of the
highlights we see over the next few years for our company.
AUTOMOTIVE
IMAS has transformed itself over the past years from a
diversified assembler/distributor/vendor of cars into a more
focused two major lines of business: traditional vehicle sales
and service (conducted under IMAS) and other businesses
including financial services, logistics, rental and other
businesses (conducted under IMJS). Some highlights to
look forward to in 2020 include: (1) the addition of Kia to
its passenger car portfolio should add around 4,000 units
of sales through 17 dealerships in 2020, (2) our logistics
company (Seino) is targeted to operate 5,400 trucks (largest
fleet in Indonesia) by the end of 2020 (up from 2,800 today),
and (3) our petrol kiosk business (under the Mobil brand)

Mr Lim Hock SanNon-Executive Chairman Independent Director
GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019 07
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
is expected to achieve 1,500 locations in 2020 on its way
to an ultimate target of 10,000 locations. These last two
businesses are in high growth mode, and their asset heavy
business models may result in higher depreciation expenses
as well as some losses in the initial growth phase. However
we expect significant contributions from both businesses in
the very near future.
UTILITIES
We expect that the demand for electricity, water and
telecommunication services we provide in Bintan and Batam
will have meaningful growth in the coming years starting in
2020 on the back of increasing demand from the existing
resorts in Bintan, new projects in Bintan (eg Obayashi JV),
and the significant growth in customers and demand in our
industrial parks. While we still able to cope with the increased
demand, we are exploring replacing some of the higher
cost production units with lower cost solutions (including
renewables). The cloud on the horizon at the moment of
writing this letter is the effects that the COVID-19 virus may
have on tourism disruption to the supply chains and the
global economy, especially since around 30% of our tourism
visitors in 2019 came from China – although the resorts utility
demand is less than 20% of our total utility business.
INDUSTRIAL PARKS
Our industrial parks business is running well, as both the
Bintan and Batam parks have increased their tenancies
significantly during the course of 2019 – although the full
financial effects will only be seen in 2020. We also have a
significant pipeline of additional demand for factory units
(which we will need to construct) that would increase our
capacity by more than 10%. As these develop over the
course of 2020, we should see continuing growth in our
industrial parks business well into the next 3-5 years.
PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT
Our property development business continues to move forward
as we saw new properties coming online in 2019 (like the
2nd glamping property called Anmon) as well as the Marine
Life Discovery Park (an experiential “swim with the fishes”
aquarium) covering 28,000 square meters. There are another
2,500 rooms currently under development which should keep
us busy through the opening of our new international airport.
Other developments include the Green Agritech Park JV with
Obayashi of Japan, which further develops Bintan as one of the
premier eco-tourism experiential learning destinations in Asia.
RESORT OPERATIONS
We saw around 1.1 million tourist arrivals to Bintan Resorts
in 2019 – another new record number. All things being
equal that trend should continue – however the effects of
the COVID-19 virus on tourism and travel may seriously
affect visitor arrivals in 2020. We have a significant number
of arrivals from China and from the cruise industry – both
of which are being impacted as we write this letter. We will
closely monitor this situation. In response to lower passenger
arrivals in January we have already temporarily reduced ferry
schedules. We will make use of the downtime to improve our
infrastructure – such as the ferry terminal renovation.
As you can see, we have a lot of good projects in the pipeline
and believe the future of our company is strong. We thank
you for your continuing support and we look forward to
providing you with good results in the near future.
Sincerely,
MR LIM HOCK SAN

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
The ongoing US-China trade war has resulted in the weakening global economy and disruption to supply chains. Business and consumer confidence were impacted while corporations’ profit margin was weighted down by punitive tariff imposed by USA and China. With this backdrop, many large companies in Asia have started diversifying their manufacturing out of China so to avoid or mitigate punitive tariff imposed by the USA. Throughout 2019, we experienced relocation of manufacturing activities from China to South Asia, and our Industrial Park in Batam and Bintan have benefited from the shift. With introduction of a few major tenants, we are seeing some of the upstream suppliers co-locating their facilities in our Industrial Parks, thus providing a strong factory lease pipeline running into Year 2021. In late 2019, the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan, China, has dampened consumer demand and impacted tourism in South Asia. For Indonesia, despite higher budget deficit in 2019, the economy was performing better than peer countries in the region but Year 2020 outlook remains uncertain as economic impact from the COVID-19 widen. With the re-election of President Joko Widodo for a second term, we see his continuing focus on infrastructure development, spending on social programs and continued push for reform of Indonesia’s sclerotic bureaucracy and regulations. Certain policy changes will have positive impact on Foreign Direct Investments and our Industrial Parks and Resorts segment will benefit tremendously.
The Group reported a net loss of S$222.0 million in FY2019 as compared to FY2018’s S$73.7 million was mainly due to goodwill impairment charge in the automotive segment and higher finance expenses. Excluding the goodwill impairment, the Group’s net loss was S$121.9 million. Furthermore, the Group’s consolidated results for FY2019 excluded S$69.5 million gain on divestment of PT Multistrada Arah Sarana Tbk (“MASA”) and IMAS’ investment properties revaluation gain of
S$28.6 million. The exclusion was mainly due to difference in accounting policies adopted by the Group. Should both gains were taken into the Consolidated Group FY2019’s net loss will be lower than FY2018.
The Group’s revenue has increased by 7% comparing to preceding year. IMAS’ financial services and vehicle rental related business continued to achieve double-digit growth. Sales of passenger cars has picked up with the successful debut of Nissan’s New Livina model. The Group’s Industrial Park occupancy in Batam rose to 92%, the highest in more than a decade while the occupancy in Bintan improved with expansion from new and existing tenants. Our Industrial Park’s lease backlog will run into FY2021. Bintan Resorts hit record high tourist arrivals with China contributed significant part of the growth. For utilities segment, consumption continues to grow in tandem with expansion in both Industrial Parks and Bintan Resorts. With continuing fulfillment of factory lease backlog and opening of new hotels in Bintan, our utilities segment will continue to grow with increasing demand for electricity.
The Group continues to focus on expansion of its industrial park portfolio and work with major investors in completion of new hotels in Bintan. While we crossed Year 2019 with COVID-19 outbreak impacting tourism and consumer sentiment, the Group is well positioned with its diversified portfolio to cope with disruption to the global economy.
AUTOMOTIVEIMAS’s revenue increased from S$1,666.6 million in FY2018 to S$1,792.2 million in FY2019, registered an increase of 8%. Financial services and vehicle rental related business continue double-digit growth of 16% and 25%, respectively. Revenue from passenger vehicle grew by 24% with more

BUSINESS REVIEW
Nissan cars sold during the year due to the successful debut of its new Livina model. Sales of trucks and heavy duty equipment suffered a dip due to uncertainty over government’s future policy on the continual infrastructure spending amidst the presidential election in 2019. The recent partnership with ExxonMobil on mini petrol station business to sell motorcycle spare parts, petrol, diesel and lubricant oil raked in S$128.6 million in revenue. Excluding the MASA’s gain and the revaluation gain on investment properties reported by IMAS and with the goodwill impairment charge, this segment suffered an operating loss of S$69.4 million as compared to a profit of S$33.3 million in FY2018. For the full year, the segment reported a loss of S$169.5 million as compared to FY2018’s loss of S$21.7 million. This segment would have reported a net loss of S$0.8 million if IMAS’s gain from the divestment of MASA, revaluation gain on investment properties and goodwill impairment charges were not adjusted.
The underlying businesses of IMAS remains strong and its integrated business model maximise value throughout the supply chain from vehicle distribution to after-sales service, financing and other related businesses. The Group is confident that this segment will turn profitable and pose for growth as:
(i) Kia Motor, South Korean automaker, has appointed IMAS as its importer and distributor for its passenger cars and commercial vehicles in Indonesia. The new brand will add to IMAS’ dealership portfolio and offer a competitive entry price range to the consumers;
(ii) Raising sales of commercial vehicles from the Indonesia government’s continual spending on infrastructure development under the brands Hino and Volvo trucks which have strong presence in Indonesia;
(iii) Strong cash flows from its car leasing business as IMAS became largest rental company, by fleet size, in Indonesia. Its corporate clients range from banks, Grab and leading FMCG manufacturers;
(iv) Expansion of its higher margin logistic business. IMAS’s key competitive advantage is its large vehicle fleet (target to operate 5,400 trucks by 2020) and well-developed IT based technology attracted reputable FMCG clients such as Indofood, Unilever, Mayora Indah, Indah Kiat pulp and paper products, McDonald’s Indonesia, Nestle, P&G and Pocari Sweat. Indonesia’s economic growth, improving road infrastructure coupled with rapid growth in e-commence sector will fuel significant demand for logistic services;
(v) IMAS’s financing arm, IMFI, has strong track record and extensive experience in financing products, such as vehicle financing, through its distribution network of more than 200 service points and IMAS’s other subsidiaries; and
(vi) The Indonesia 2-Wheelers market will continue to grow and this will have positive impact on IMAS’s mini petrol kiosk business that provides spare part, petrol and lubricant oil.
UTILITIESPower consumption in the industrial parks has expanded in tandem with introduction of new tenants but yet to achieve its peak capacity as many have yet to enter full-scale production in their factories. The Group is confident that once the tenants begin full-scale production, the power consumption will increase significantly. Hike in natural gas price squeezed our profit margin in Batam and the Group is actively seeking alternative fuel sources, including renewable energy, so to diversify from its dependent on natural gas. Power consumption in the Resorts segment increased by approximately 8% due to increase in tourist arrivals and tourism related activities in Bintan. The Group expects new hotels opening and commercial developments in the coming years would provide sustainable growth in the utilities segment. The Group is confident that profitability in this segment will ride along growth in the Industrial Parks and Resorts segment.
INDUSTRIAL PARKSOur industrial park in Batam has performed exceptionally well in 2019 with occupancy rate surpassing 90%, highest occupancy rate in the past decade. With the ongoing trade tension between USA and China, many manufacturers have diversified their productions out of China and co-locate in South East Asia. Several have joined our Industrial Parks to take advantage of our close proximity to Singapore that provides excellent logistic infrastructure. Net expansion of 40,283 sqm in 2019 from new and existing tenants accounted approximately 9% of our total factory space in Batam. With pipeline running into Year 2021, our Batamindo Industrial Park will achieve full occupancy and is embarking construction of new factory units so to fulfill the backlog. For our Bintan Industrial Estate, occupancy has improved with additional of new manufacturing clusters – Offshore Marine and Food processing related businesses. In a move to revitalize our Bintan industrial Estate and shifting the focus from electronics and general manufacturing tenant base, high tech farming/food innovation hub and Bintan Offshore Marine Centre (“BOMC”) were established within the industrial estate. The Group is targeting industrial players in the agriculture and aquaculture high tech farming, AgriTech startups and food manufacturing and processing industries. Our competitive advantages that distinct from other industrial parks are mainly due to availability of well master-planned industrial space, support facilities, portable water and been one of the few Halal certified zone for food processing. Following the success of phase one development, BOMC is undertaking second phase development to set up a world longest spool base facility for fabrication of undersea pipeline designated specifically for offshore oil & gas customers.
Our Bintan Industrial Estate is located in close proximity to the new Bintan Resorts International Airport and Aerospace Park. This has positive impact and beneficial to the growth of our Bintan Industrial Estate. The plan by the Indonesia government to connect Batam and Bintan with a 7km bridge so to boost connectivity in the Riau Islands province so to spur economic growth bodes well for demand of industrial

BUSINESS REVIEW
spaces. Overall, the occupancy and rental rates in our industrial parks have improved and the Group expects the industrial space pipeline remains robust.
PROPERTY DEVELOPMENTThe Group is co-developing new hotels and resorts with investors so to speed up development in Bintan Resorts and increase room inventory. Developing in tandem with the construction of Bintan Resorts International Airport, to be operational by 2023, Bintan Resorts is well position to capture bigger tourist market. The Plaza Lagoi Mall is now fully occupied with new retail stores offering more diverse products and dining options to the consumers. The Group plans to extend the mall connecting hotels in the vicinity so to enhance hotel stay experience in Lagoi Bay.
Updates on property development:–
(a) New Development
Chiva-Som Resort and Wellness Centre, located at the exclusive part of Lagoi. Upon completion, it will house a wellness hotel, wellness centre and luxury villa estates build amidst natural mangroves and overlooking the pristine white sandy beaches. It is scheduled to open in the 3rd quarter of 2022.
(b) New Attraction
Treasure Bay Bintan – Marine Life Discovery Park; The park opened in 4th quarter 2019, spans approximately 2.8 hectares that house more than 70 species and approximately 15,000 fishes. It aims to showcase marine life species in a tropical habitat and enable up-close interaction with marine life in an open, yet safe and controlled environment. The park also exhibits wildlife such as marine birds, mangrove native flora and fauna to facilitate learning and appreciation of the marine wildlife ecosystem.

(c) New Activities
The International Bintan Marathon is the newest addition to the suite of world-class sporting events here, alongside with the Bintan Triathlon and Ironman 70.3 Bintan.
RESORT OPERATIONTourist arrival to Bintan Resorts reached a record high of 1,094,442 for the second straight year with the Chinese visitors contributing substantial part of the growth. Our ferries’ ridership has increased by 6.4% and more than 400,000 passengers had passed through our ferry terminal in Bintan with introduction of port call by international cruise ships. While the Group expects continued growth in tourism segment, the outbreak of COVID-19 in China and fast spreading globally which have significant impact to the tourism industry in near term. China outbound market, which is a substantial growth engine to our tourism business, is expected to drop significantly with the group travel ban imposed by the Chinese Authority. We expect the demand for our ferry services and tourism related services to be severely affected. During this challenging period, the Group will implement measures to cope with the slowdown and to ensure that it is able to resume to full operation once the health and travel alert are lifted.
The Group believes that the COVID-19 outbreak is unlikely to last long and is confident that travel demand will pick up significantly after the crisis. Bintan Resorts remains popular with the local and international travelers and we continue to
GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019 11
develop new products and attractions during this period. There is series of initiatives and developments to promote Bintan as key tourist destination and stimulate growth to the island’s tourist industry:
(i) The Indonesia government’s ongoing initiatives to increase tourist arrivals and designated tourism as one of the main industrial sector for investment. Bintan Resorts is one of the tourist destination identified by the Indonesia government to attract Foreign Direct Investment.
(ii) The new Bintan Resorts International Airport, which is currently under construction, and the upcoming construction of 7km sea bridge linking Batam and Bintan will increase Bintan Resorts’ connectivity and attractiveness as tourist destination. These will be our key pillars to promote Bintan as a “Work, Live and Play” destination.
(iii) The development of Cruise tourism with Genting Dream Cruise offering two-night weekend Bintan Cruise and Royal Caribbean’s Voyager of the Seas making its maiden call at Bintan in May 2019. A scheduled port call by international cruises will boost tourist segment in Bintan and drive growth in tourism related services in the island.
(iv) The Group entered into cooperative agreement with the Obayashi Group to build a Green Agritech Park designed as an eco-tourism destination. This widen the island’s appeal as a tourism destination with wide-ranging experiences for different tourists including
families adventure-seekers, photography enthusiasts, MICE and business travelers, students and more. There will also be a visitor and education centre for tourists and students, promoting agri-technology as part of the park’s drive to become an eco-tourism destination.
GOING FORWARDDespite the COVID-19 crisis and the on-going trade war between the USA and China, the Group will remain vigilant and the Group is confident that it will overcome these challenges by focusing on its strengths and core competencies by implementing strategies to:–
(i) Better working capital management to improve and conserve cash flow;

GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 201912
BUSINESS REVIEW
The Group’s revenue grew by 7% from FY2018’s S$1,832.7
million to S$1,965.7 million in FY2019. Higher revenue was
mainly from automotive, utilities, industrial parks and resort
operation segments. IMAS’s finance companies, passenger
vehicle sales, vehicle rental and distribution of fuel and
lubricant have contributed positively to the Group’s revenue
but trucks and heavy equipment sales remain lower due to
slower infrastructure spending in Indonesia. Higher revenue
from the utilities, industrial parks and resort operation were
mainly due to increased industrial parks’ occupancy rate and
higher tourist arrivals into Bintan.
The Group reported a higher net loss attributable to
shareholders of S$222.0 million as compared to S$73.7
million loss in the previous year and was mainly due to
goodwill impairment charge of S$100.1 million and higher
interest expenses in the automotive segment. Furthermore,
the Group’s consolidated results for FY2019 excluded S$69.5
million gain on divestment of PT Multistrada Arah Sarana Tbk
(“MASA”) and IMAS’ investment properties revaluation gain of
S$28.6 million. Excluding the impairment charge and without
exclusion of one-time gains in IMAS, the Group’s net loss
would be lower than the previous period.
The Group’s EBITDA was S$73.7 million as compared to
2018’s S$181.1 million. Excluding the impairment charge
of S$100.1 million, the EBITDA would be S$173.8 million.
EBITDA contributions from our five business segments were
S$37.9 million (FY2018: S$145.3 million) from Automotive,
S$34.4 million (FY2018: S$38.0 million) from Utilities, S$19.6
million (FY2018: S$20.1 million) from Industrial Parks, -S$11.6
million (FY2018: -S$9.8 million) from Property Development
and S$2.0 million (FY2018: S$2.3 million) from Resort
Operations.
Basic and diluted net loss per share was 4.15 cents per share
for the period under review. The Group’s Net Asset Value
(“NAV”) per share as at 31 December 2019 was 22.98 cents.
AUTOMOTIVEIMAS achieved revenue growth of 8% from S$1,666.6 million
in FY2018 to S$1,792.2 million in FY2019. Revenue growth
was mainly from its passenger vehicle sales, financial services
and vehicle rental related business. New business from
distribution of fuel and lubricant for the 2W market has
contributed positively. While the sales of trucks and heavy
equipment are lagging, financial services and vehicle rental
related business continued to achieve double digit growth.
IMAS’s operating income increased from S$131.0 million
to S$176.3 million including the gain on the divestment of
MASA and revaluation gain on investment properties. For
the full year 2019, IMAS reported a higher net profit of
S$14.3 million as compared to 2018’s net profit of S$9.6
million due to gain on the divestment of MASA and higher
revaluation gain on investment properties. IMAS’s gain of
S$69.5 million on the divestment of MASA and investment
properties’ revaluation gain of S$28.6 million were excluded
from the segment as the Group adopts different accounting
policies on investment in equity and investment properties.
After the segmental adjustments and goodwill impairment
charge of S$100.1 million, the adjusted net loss was S$169.5
million as compared to 2018’s adjusted net loss of S$21.7
million. The Group is confident that the automotive segment
will turn profitable in due course with IMAS’s expanding
brand franchises in passenger and commercial vehicles
coupled with its sustainable growth in its financial services
and vehicle rental related business. IMAS’s trucks and
duty equipment is expected to growth alongside with the
Indonesia government’s continual spending on infrastructure
development.
UTILITIESRevenue increased from S$100.2 million in FY2018 to
S$104.5 million in FY2019. Power consumption from Bintan
Resorts increased by 8% while consumption in the industrial
parks is still lagging behind as new tenants yet to achieve full
production at their facilities. The Group is confident that once
the tenants in the industrial parks begin full-scale production,
the consumption for the power will increase significantly.
Profit declined from S$15.5 million to S$13.4 million and
was mainly due to increase in natural gas price in Batam
but was partially mitigated by higher margin in Bintan. The
Group expects this segment to continue to generate healthy
profit with strong industrial rental pipeline and more hotels
commence operation in Bintan.
GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019 13
FINANCIAL REVIEW
INDUSTRIAL PARKSRevenue increased from S$36.2 million in FY2018 to
S$37.7 million in FY2019. Factory rental and related income
increased as a result of improved occupancy in the industrial
parks but partially offset by lower revenue from the housing
project in Batam. The loss increased marginally from S$10.6
million in FY2018 to S$10.7 million in FY2019. With more
manufacturers co-locating their operations in South East Asia,
the Group expects more manufacturers joining our industrial
parks and will contribute positively to the business. Currently,
our backlog will run into Year 2021.
PROPERTY DEVELOPMENTThe net loss in our Property Development segment increased
by 13% from S$13.9 million in FY2018 to S$15.1 million and
was mainly due to higher operating expenses. Bintan Resorts
remains as one of favourite tourist destination and the Group
is confident that it will continue to attract investments into
Bintan. While the outbreak of COVID-19 has slowed down
tourist traffic, new hotel developments continue and will be
ready to receive tourists after the crisis. The upcoming Bintan
Resorts International Airport will further integrate regional
outbound market to Bintan and accelerate development
growth in this segment.
RESORT OPERATIONSThe number of tourist arrival increased by 3% from 1,063,458
visitors in 2018 to 1,094,442 in 2019. Ferry passenger load
continues to grow in tandem with increased tourist arrivals.
Our ferry services performed well while other tourism related
services have improved. Resort Operations loss increased
from S$4.3 million in FY2018 to FY2019’s S$5.1 million
was mainly due to higher expenses, partially mitigated by
improved profit in our ferry business. Our resort segment will
be affected by the outbreak of COVID-19 but the Group is
confident that Resort Operations will recover once regional
outbound markets lift travel restrictions between countries.

GALLANT VENTURE LTDAnnual Report 2019 49
PRINCIPLE 2: BOARD COMPOSITION AND GUIDANCE
The Board has an appropriate level of independence and diversity of thought and background in its composition to enable it
to make decisions in the best interests of the company.
As at the date of this Report, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) comprises nine members, of whom two are Non-Executive
and Non-Independent and three are Non-Executive and Independent Directors. The Independent Directors make up one-third
of the Board. The majority of the Board comprises Non-Executive Directors.
1. Mr Lim Hock San Non-Executive Chairman and Independent Director
2. Mr Eugene Cho Park Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer
3. Mr Gianto Gunara Executive Director
4. Mr Jusak Kertowidjojo Executive Director
5. Mr Choo Kok Kiong Executive Director
6. Dr Tan Chin Nam Non-Executive Director
7. Mr Axton Salim Non-Executive Director
8. Mr Foo Ko Hing Non-Executive and Independent Director
9. Mr Rivaie Rachman Non-Executive and Independent Director
The criterion for independence is based on the definition given in the Code and the Listing Rules of the Singapore Exchange
Securities Trading Limited (“Listing Rules”). The Code has defined an “Independent” Director as one as one who is independent
in conduct, character and judgement and who has no relationship with the Company, its related corporations, its substantial
shareholders or its officers that could interfere, or be reasonably perceived to interfere, with the exercise of the director’s
independent business judgment in the best interests of the Company. Under the Listing Rules, an independent director is not
one who is or has been employed by the Company or any of its related corporations for the current or any of the past three
financial years; or not one who has an immediate family member who is, or has been in any of the past three financial years,
employed by the Company or any of its related corporations and whose remuneration is determined by the RC.
Annual Review of Directors’ Independence in 2019
The independence of each Director is reviewed annually by the Nominating Committee, based on the definition of independence
as stated in the Code and the Listing Rules.
All the Independent Directors, Mr Lim Hock San, Mr Foo Ko Hing and Mr Rivaie Rachman have confirmed their independence
and they do not have any relationship with the Company, its related corporations, its substantial shareholders or its officers
that could interfere, or be reasonably perceived to interfere, with the exercise of their independent judgment. They have also
confirmed their independence in accordance with the Listing Rules.
Mr Lim Hock San, Mr Foo Ko Hing and Mr Rivaie Rachman have served as Directors for more than nine years. The Board
accordingly performed a specific and rigorous review of their independence. The Board deemed that the length of service of a
Director should not determine the effectiveness of independence of an Independent Director. In assessing the independence
of a Director, the Board considers it more appropriate to have regard to the Director’s contribution in terms of professionalism,
integrity, objectivity and ability to exercise independence of judgment in his deliberation in the interest of the Company.
The Board is of the view that the Independent Directors have over the years developed significant insights in the Group’s
business and operations, and can continue to provide significant and valuable contribution objectively to the Board as a
whole. Mr Lim Hock San, Mr Foo Ko Hing and Mr Rivaie Rachman have confirmed their independence as aforesaid. After
taking into account all these factors, the Board has determined Mr Lim Hock San, Mr Foo Ko Hing and Mr Rivaie Rachman
independent. Each of Mr Lim Hock San, Mr Foo Ko Hing and Mr Rivaie Rachman abstained from the Board’s deliberation
of his independence.

Board size and diversity
The Board is of the view that the current Board members comprise persons whose diverse skills, experience and attributes
provide for effective direction for the Group. The current Board comprises individuals who are business leaders and
professionals with financial, banking, real estate, investment and accounting backgrounds. The varied backgrounds of the
Directors enable Management to benefit from their respective expertise and diverse background. The Board also considers
gender as an important aspect of diversity alongside factors such as the age, ethnicity and educational background of its
members, as it believes that diversity in the Board’s composition contributes to the quality of its decision making. The Company
will continue to consider the merits of the candidates in its Board renewal process and believes that doing so will meet its
aim of achieving diversity of perspectives as described above.
The composition of the Board is reviewed on an annual basis by the Nominating Committee to ensure that the Board has
the appropriate mix of expertise and experience, and collectively possess the necessary core competencies for effective
functioning and informed decision-making.
The experiences and credentials of the Board members are set out in the “Board of Directors” section of the Annual Report.
Role of Non-Executive Directors
The Non-Executive Directors assist the Board in performing its role by constructively challenge the development of its strategies
and bring to the Board different perspectives based on their experiences. They critically assess and review the progress of
the Management in implementing strategies set by the Board. When necessary or appropriate, the Non-Executive Directors
(including the Independent Chairman and other Independent Directors) will meet without the presence of the Management
and provide inputs to the Board.
PRINCIPLE 3: CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
There is a clear division of responsibilities between the leadership of the Board and Management, and no one individual has
unfettered powers of decision-making.
The roles of the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) are separate and distinct, each having their own areas of
responsibilities. The Company believes that a distinctive separation of responsibilities between the Chairman and the CEO
will ensure an appropriate balance of power, increased accountability and greater capacity of the Board for independent
decision-making. The posts of Chairman and CEO are held by Mr Lim Hock San and Mr Eugene Cho Park respectively. The
Chairman and CEO are not related.
The Chairman, Mr Lim Hock San is primarily responsible for overseeing the overall management and strategic development
of the Company.
His responsibilities include:
• Leading the Board in his role as Chairman of the Board;
• Ensuring regular meetings (with the assistance of the Company Secretary) to enable the Board to perform its duties
responsibly while not interfering with the flow of the Group’s operations;
• Preparing meeting agenda (in consultation with the CEO and CFO);
• Reviewing board papers that are presented to the Board;
• Ensuring effective communication with shareholders; and
• Promoting good corporate governance.
STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCEFINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTDAnnual Report 2019 51
In assuming his roles and responsibilities, Mr Lim Hock San consults with the Board, ARMC, NC and RC on major issues
and as such, the Board believes that there are adequate safeguards in place against having a concentration of power and
authority in a single individual.
The Company’s CEO, Mr Eugene Cho Park is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Company and the Group’s
affairs. Mr Eugene Cho Park reports to the Board and ensures that policies and strategies adopted by the Board are
implemented.
There is no requirement for the Company to appoint a Lead Independent Director as the roles of Chairman and CEO are
separate and distinct. The Independent Directors meet amongst themselves without the presence of the other directors
where necessary for independent discussions and strive to provide constructive feedback to the Board after their meetings.
PRINCIPLE 4: BOARD MEMBERSHIP
The Board has a formal and transparent process for the appointment and re-appointment of directors, taking into account
the need for progressive renewal of the Board.
The NC comprises three members, all of whom including its Chairman are independent. The members of the NC are:
Mr Rivaie Rachman (Chairman) Non-Executive and Independent Director
Mr Lim Hock San Non-Executive and Independent Director
Mr Foo Ko Hing Non-Executive and Independent Director
The primary function of the NC is to determine the criteria for identifying candidates and reviewing nominations for the
appointment of directors to the Board and also to decide how the Board’s performance may be evaluated and to propose
objective performance criteria for the Board’s approval.
The NC functions under the terms of reference which sets out its responsibilities:
(a) To review board succession plans for directors, in particular, the Chairman,CEO and key management personnel;
(b) To develop the process for evaluation of the performance of the Board, its committees and directors and conduct a
formal assessment of the effectiveness of the Board, Board Committees and contribution by each director;
(c) To review the training and professional development programs for the Board;
(d) To recommend to the Board on all board appointments, re-appointments and re-nominations;
(e) To review the independence of the Independent Directors in accordance with the Code and Listing Rules.
The NC has conducted an annual review of the independence of the Independent Directors, using the criteria of independence
in the Code and the Listing Rules, and has determined that they are independent.
Multiple Board Representations
The NC ensures that new Directors are aware of their duties and obligations. The NC also decides if a Director is able to and
has been adequately carrying out his or her duties as a Director of the company.
The NC considers and it is of the view that it would not be appropriate to set a limit on the number of directorships in listed
companies that a Director may hold because directors have different capabilities, and the nature of the organisations in
which they hold appointments and the kind of committees on which they serve are of different complexities, and for each
Director to personally determine the demands of his or her competing directorships and obligations and assess the number
of directorships they could hold and serve effectively.
STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCEFINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTDAnnual Report 201952
The NC has reviewed each Director’s outside directorships, their principal commitments and attendance and contributions to
the Board. Despite the multiple directorships, the NC is satisfied that the Directors have discharged their duties adequately

Annually, the NC reviews the composition of the Board and Board committees having regard to the performance and
contribution of each individual director and to ensure diversity of skills and experience within the Board and Board committees.
Where there is a resignation or retirement of an existing director, the NC will re-evaluate the Board composition to assess the
competencies for the replacement. The NC will deliberate and propose the background, skills, qualification and experience
of the candidate it deems appropriate. The factors taken into consideration by the NC could include among other things,
whether the new director can add to or complement the mix of skills and qualifications in the existing Board, relevance
of his experience and contributions to the business of the Company and the depth and breadth he could bring to Board
discussions. Candidates are sourced through a network of contacts and identified based on the established criteria. Search
can be made through relevant institutions such as the Singapore Institute of Directors (“SID”), professional organisations or
business federations or external search consultants. New directors will be appointed by way of a Board resolution, after the
NC makes the necessary recommendation to the Board.
The Constitution of the Company requires that one-third of the Board retire from office by rotation at each Annual General
Meeting (“AGM”). Accordingly, the Directors will submit themselves for re-nomination and re-election at regular intervals of
at least once every three years.
Mr Gianto Gunara, Mr Jusak Kertowidjojo and Mr Choo Kok Kiong will retire by rotation pursuant to the Constitution of the
Company. The NC has recommended to the Board, their re-election at the forthcoming annual general meeting.
In recommending the above Directors for re-election, the NC has taken into consideration these Directors’ contribution and
performance. The Board has accepted the NC’s recommendation. Each of the Directors has abstained from the Board’s
deliberation on his re-election.
In accordance with the Listing Rules, the particulars of the directors as set out in Appendix 7.4.1 of the Listing Manual in

PRINCIPLE 5: BOARD PERFORMANCE
The Board undertakes a formal annual assessment of its effectiveness as a whole, and that of each of its board committees
and individual directors.
Conduct of Board Performance
The NC has established a formal evaluation process to assess the effectiveness of the Board as a whole and peer assessment.
Each year, the Directors were requested to complete evaluation forms to assess the overall effectiveness of the Board and
the Board Committees, as well as peer assessment. The results of the evaluation exercise were considered by the NC,
which then made recommendations to the Board, aimed at assisting the Board to discharge its duties more effectively. The
Chairman should, in consultation with the NC, propose, where appropriate, new members to be appointed to the board or
seek the resignation of directors.
The evaluation of Board’s performance focuses on Board composition, maintenance of independence, Board information,
Board process, Board accountability, communication with Management and standard of conduct. The NC also reviews the
Board’s performance to enhance shareholders’ value in terms of the Company’s profitability, liquidity, gearing, dividend yield
and total shareholder return against industry peers based on their published financial results.
The NC reviews Individual Director’s performance with focus on the contribution by individual Directors to the Board in terms
of time commitment and in providing independent and objective perspectives based on their background, experience and
competencies in the relevant skills critical to the Company’s business and in the development of strategies to enable the
Board to have a balance of views and critically assess all relevant issues in its decision makings.
The NC has reviewed the overall performance of the Board in terms of its role and responsibilities and the conduct of its
affairs as a whole for the year under review and is of the view that the performances of the Board and Board Committees
have been satisfactory.

individual Directors, and will consider the use of such facilitator as and when appropriate.
REMUNERATION MATTERS
PRINCIPLE 6: PROCEDURES FOR DEVELOPING REMUNERATION POLICES
The Board has a formal and transparent procedure for developing policies on director and executive remuneration, and for
fixing the remuneration packages of individual directors and key management personnel. No director is involved in deciding
his or her own remuneration.
The RC comprises three members, all of whom including its Chairman are independent. The members of the RC are:
Mr Foo Ko Hing (Chairman) Non-Executive and Independent Director
Mr Lim Hock San Non-Executive and Independent Director
Mr Rivaie Rachman Non-Executive and Independent Director
STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCEFINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTDAnnual Report 201954
The RC functions under the terms of reference which sets out its responsibilities:
(a) To recommend to the Board a framework for remuneration for the Directors and key management personnel of the
Company;
(b) To determine specific remuneration packages for each Executive Director and key management personnel;
(c) To review the appropriateness of compensation for Non-Executive Directors; and
(d) To review the remuneration of employees who are substantial shareholders or immediate family members of a director,
the CEO or substantial shareholder to ensure that the remuneration of each of such employee commensurate with his
or her duties and responsibilities, and no preferential treatment is given to him or her.
All aspects of remuneration, including but not limited to Directors’ fee, salaries, allowances, bonuses and benefits in kind,
will be covered by the RC. No member of the RC or any Director is involved in the deliberations in respect of any resolution
in respect of his remuneration package.
Each of the Executive Director and key management personnel has a service agreement with the Company which can be
terminated by either party giving notice of resignation/termination. The RC has reviewed the Group’s obligations arising in the
event of termination of the Executive Directors’ and key management personnel’s contracts of service, to ensure that such
contracts of service contain fair and reasonable termination clauses which are not overly generous.
The RC will be provided with access to expert professional advice on remuneration matters as and when necessary. The
expense of such services shall be borne by the Company. For FY2019, there was no engagement of independent professional
advice.
PRINCIPLE 7: LEVEL AND MIX OF REMUNERATION
The level and structure of remuneration of the Board and key management personnel are appropriate and proportionate to
the sustained performance and value creation of the company, taking into account the strategic objectives of the company.
Remuneration of Executive Directors and key management personnel
In setting remuneration packages, the RC will take into consideration the pay and employment conditions within the industry
and in comparable companies. All the Executive Directors, including the CEO, and key management personnel have service
agreements with the Company. The service agreements cover the terms of employment, salaries and other benefits.
The remuneration of Executive Directors and key management personnel comprises both fixed and variable components.
The variable component is performance related and is linked to the Group/Company’s performance as well as individual’s
performance. Such performance-related remuneration is designed to align with the interests of shareholders and promote
long term success of the Group. The Executive Directors are not paid Directors’ fee.
Currently, the Company has no long term incentive schemes. The RC has reviewed and is satisfied that the existing
compensation structure with variable component paid out in cash has continued to be effective in incentivising performance
without being excessively compensated.
The Company does not have claw-back provisions which allow it to reclaim incentive components of remuneration from its
Directors and key management personnel.
STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCEFINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTDAnnual Report 2019 55
Remuneration of Non-Executive and Independent Directors
All the Non-Executive Directors have no service contract and are compensated with Directors’ fee taking into considerations
their respective contributions and attendance at meetings. Additional variable fees are paid for appointment to board
committees according to the level of responsibilities undertaken as chairman or member of the Board committees. The RC
reviews the Directors’ fee for Non-Executive Directors to ensure that the remuneration is commensurate with their contribution
and responsibilities.
The Company will submit the quantum of Directors’ fee of each year to the shareholders for approval at each AGM.
The RC has reviewed the fee structure for non-executive directors as being reflective of their responsibilities and work
commitments without over-compensation to the extent that their independence will be compromised and recommends the
directors’ fee for FY2019 to the Board for tabling at the forthcoming annual general meeting for shareholders’ approval.
The RC considers that the current fee structure adequately compensates the non-executive directors, and given the size
and operations of the Company, any implementation of schemes to encourage non-executive directors to hold shares in the
Company may result in over-compensation. The RC will consider recommending such schemes, if appropriate.
PRINCIPLE 8: DISCLOSURE OF REMUNERATION
The company is transparent on its remuneration policies, level and mix of remuneration, the procedure for setting remuneration,
and the relationships between remuneration, performance and value creation.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCEFINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTDAnnual Report 201956
The Executive Directors who sit on the Board hold executive positions in the Group’s Indonesian subsidiaries. Under Indonesian
governance, there is no requirement for corporations in Indonesia to disclose the detailed remuneration of individual directors
and executives. The disclosure in Singapore would affect the confidentiality of their remuneration. The Indonesian subsidiaries
would be put into a position of unequal treatment in governing the confidentiality of their employees’ remuneration. Such
executives who are on the Board would be disadvantaged unfairly. In addition, given the highly competitive conditions in
the market place where poaching of executives is not uncommon, it is not in the interest of the Company to disclose the
remuneration of individual Executive Directors. The Board is of the view that it would be disadvantageous to the Group to
disclose the exact remuneration of the Directors.
Each Independent Director’s remuneration comprises wholly directors’ fee of not more than S$500,000.
Remuneration of Key Management Personnel
The Code recommends that the Company should name and disclose the remuneration of at least the top five key management
personnel in bands of S$250,000.
The Company has many competitors in the same industry which are private companies. By disclosing the top five key
management personnel individually in bands of S$250,000, the Company is susceptible to poaching of its personnel in a highly
competitive market place vying for talent. The competitors have publicly available information of profile of the Company’s key
personnel and remuneration benchmark. The Company does not have similar information and is seriously disadvantaged as
compared to its competitors in retaining and recruitment of key personnel. Loss of its key personnel involves considerable loss
of operational know-how and cost in recruitment of similar talent and gestation period for new key personnel to be fully inducted
into the Company’s work practices. All this would impact its business competitive edge vis-à-vis its competitors. Disclosure
of the names of the key management personnel will be not in the interest of the Company from a business perspective.
The remuneration of 3 the Company’s top 5 key management personnel is above S$250,000. The aggregate total remuneration
paid to the top 5 key management personnel (who are not directors of the Company or the CEO) in 2019 is approximately
S$1,370,146.
Remuneration of employees who are substantial shareholders or immediate family members of a director, the
CEO or a substantial shareholder
There was no employee of the Company or its subsidiaries who was an immediate family member of a Director, the CEO
or a substantial shareholder and whose remuneration exceeds S$100,000 for the financial year ended 31 December 2019.
Employee share schemes
The Company does not have any employee share scheme for its employees. The RC has reviewed and is satisfied that
the existing compensation structure with variable component paid out in cash has continued to be effective in incentivising
performance of employees without being excessive.

(a) from the CEO and CFO that the financial record have been properly maintained and the financial statements give a
true and fair view of the Group’s operations and finances; and

for or against the resolutions are also announced after the general meetings via SGXNET.
The Company prepares minutes of general meetings on the proceedings and questions raised by shareholders and answers
given by the Board and Management. The company does not publish minutes of general meetings of shareholders on its

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Gallant Venture Ltd. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries
(the “Group”), which comprise the statements of financial position of the Company and the Group as at 31 December 2019,
the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated
statement of cash flows of the Group for the financial year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a
summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group and the statement of financial position of the
Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the “Act”) and Singapore
Financial Reporting Standards (International) (“SFRS(I)”) so as to give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position
of the Group and the financial position of the Company as at 31 December 2019 and the consolidated financial performance,
consolidated changes in equity and consolidated cash flows of the Group for the financial year ended on that date.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with Singapore Standards on Auditing (“SSAs”). Our responsibilities under those
standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our
report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (“ACRA”)
Code of Professional Conduct and Ethics for Public Accountants and Accounting Entities (“ACRA Code”) together with the
ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Singapore, and we have fulfilled our other
ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the ACRA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we
have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a
whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
(a) Impairment assessment of investments in subsidiaries of the Company (Note 7) and goodwill of the Group
(Note 3)
As at 31 December 2019, investments in subsidiaries of the Company amount to S$2.50 billion representing about
97% of the Company’s total assets.
As at 31 December 2019, the Group has goodwill with net book value of S$427 million arising from its acquisition of
automotive business included in intangible assets, representing about 8% of the Group’s total assets.
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if the events and
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired.

Key Audit Matters (Cont’d)
(a) Impairment assessment of investment in subsidiaries of the Company (Note 7) and goodwill of the Group
(Note 3) (Cont’d)
An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount,
the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value-in-use (“VIU”). The recoverable amount from VIU calculation is based
on certain key assumptions, such as the 5-year cash flow projections and the growth rate, terminal value and discount
rate of the cash generating unit (“CGU”) in order to calculate the present value of the CGU’s future cash flows. These
assumptions which are determined by management are judgmental. A small change in the assumptions may have a
significant impact to the estimation of the recoverable amount.
In determining appropriate CGU level, the Company and the Group have performed the impairment assessment at the
smallest CGU identifiable – either at the business segment or at the entity level.
Our response and work performed
Our audit procedures included among others, evaluating the identification of CGUs within the Group. We obtained the
valuation model prepared by management and the inputs and assumptions used.
We engaged auditor’s expert to evaluate the valuation model. We assessed whether the auditor’s expert has the
necessary competency and objectivity for our purposes. We also obtained an understanding of the nature and scope
of objectives of that expert’s work and evaluating the adequacy of that work.
In the computation of the 5-years discounted cash flow projections (including terminal value), the Group had taken into
account the indicative market prices of their goods, and used inputs, such as market growth rate, weighted average
cost of capital and other factors, typical of similar industry. Management had applied its knowledge of the business
in the review of these estimates.
Through our auditor’s expert, we assessed reasonableness of the methodology adopted, inputs and basis and
assumptions used to arrive at the recoverable amounts of the CGUs based on the VIU calculations. We also checked
the arithmetical accuracy and completeness of the VIU calculations.
We also focused on the adequacy of disclosures of key assumptions and sensitivity. The Group’s disclosures on
intangible assets and investments in subsidiaries are included in Note 3 and Note 7 to the financial statements
respectively.
(b) Impairment assessment of financing receivables (Note 9) and trade receivables (Note 14) of the Group
As at 31 December 2019, total financing receivables of the Group amounts to S$1.40 billion, in which S$0.59 billion
is classified under current assets and S$0.81 billion is classified under non-current asset. Total financing receivables
represents about 25% of the Group’s total assets.
As at 31 December 2019, trade receivables amount to S$229.7 million, representing about 4% of the Group’s total
assets.

Key Audit Matters (Cont’d)
(b) Impairment assessment of financing receivables (Note 9) and trade receivables (Note 14) of the Group
(Cont’d)
The Group applies on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses (“ECL”) associated with its financing
receivables and trade receivables in accordance with SFRS(I) 9 Financial Instruments.
The Group elects to assess the ECL on its financing receivables using the general approach. The impairment
methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. ECL is measured as an
allowance equal to 12-month ECL for Stage-1 (low credit risk) assets or lifetime ECL for Stage-2 (deterioration in credit
risk) or Stage-3 (credit-impaired) assets. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant increase in
credit risk or credit impaired since initial recognition (Stage-1), ECL is provided for credit losses that result from default
events that are possible within the next 12 months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for which there has
been a significant increase in credit risk or credit-impaired since initial recognition (Stage-2 and Stage-3 respectively),
a loss allowance is recognised for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of timing
of the default (a lifetime ECL).
For receivables which are trade in nature, the Group applies the simplified approach in calculating ECL. The Group
does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance based on lifetime ECL at each reporting
date. The Group establishes a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for current
market conditions and forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and the economic environment.
Assessing the ECL for impairment of receivables requires management to make subjective judgements. ECL is a
function of the probability of default, loss given default (i.e. the magnitude of the loss if there is a default) and the
exposure at default.
The assessment of the correlation between historical observed default rates, forecast economic conditions and ECL is
a significant estimate. The amount of ECL is sensitive to changes in circumstances and forecast economic conditions.
Our response and work performed
We evaluated the appropriateness of the general approach and simplified approach used by management, including
assessing the reasonableness of assumptions used in determining changes in credit risk and historical default rates
adjusted for current conditions and forward-looking information, respectively.
We reviewed the Group’s design and operating effectiveness of the controls over the financing receivables’ data,
receivables’ collection process, and the ageing of receivables’ balances. These controls included those of credit
review and approval.
We reviewed the Group’s processes and controls for monitoring and identifying trade receivables with collection risks.
We performed audit procedures, amongst others, obtaining trade receivable confirmations, assessing the facts and
circumstances surrounding the outstanding amount presented by management, tested the accuracy of the ageing
report and reviewed for evidence of collection by way of subsequent receipts after the year end.
We recomputed management’s calculation of the ECL. We also reviewed the adequacy and reasonableness of the
relevant disclosures. The Group’s disclosures on the credit risk are included in Note 39(b) to the financial statements.

(c) Impairment assessment of property, plant equipment (Note 4)
As at 31 December 2019, the Group’s property, plant and equipment amounts to S$1.20 billion, represents about
21% of the Group’s total assets.
Non-financial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount may not be recoverable.
An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount,
the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value-in-use (“VIU”). The recoverable amount from VIU calculation is based
on certain key assumptions, such as cash flow projections covering a five-year period and the perpetual growth rate
and discount rate per cash generating unit (“CGU”). A CGU is defined as the smallest identifiable group of assets that
generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. These
assumptions which are determined by management are judgmental.
In determining appropriate CGU level, the Group has performed the impairment assessment of property, plant and
equipment according to the smallest CGU identifiable.
Our response and work performed
Our audit procedures included among others, assessing appropriateness of cash-generating units identified by
management, evaluating management’s assessment for impairment indications, reviewing the valuation model and
assumptions used.
We reviewed the appropriateness of cash-generating units (“CGUs”) as identified by management.
We evaluated whether there had been significant changes in the external and internal factors considered by the Group
in assessing whether indicators of impairment exist.
In the assessment of impairment, the Group takes into account the indicative open market prices of the leasehold
land, building and infrastructure, utilities plant and machinery, transportation equipment and vehicles, typical of similar
industries. Senior management has applied its knowledge of the business in the review of these estimates.
We reviewed, through the component auditor’s expert, management’s expert estimates and key assumptions
adopted in the valuation methodologies and the recoverable amounts of CGUs associated with the property, plant
and equipment.
We have also assessed the competencies and objectivities of the component auditor’s expert.
We also focused on the adequacy of disclosures about key assumptions and sensitivity. The disclosures about the
Group’s property, plant and equipment are included in Note 4.

Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the “Directors’ Statement” section of
the Annual Report but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon, which we obtained prior to
the date of this auditor’s report, and the remaining sections of the Annual Report which are expected to be made available
to us after that date.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not and will not express any form
of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and,
in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report,
we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have
nothing to report in this regard.
When we read the remaining sections of the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we
are required to communicate the matter to the directors and take appropriate actions in accordance with SSAs.
Responsibilities of Management and Directors for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the
provisions of the Act and SFRS(I), and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide
a reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are
properly authorised and that they are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair financial statements
and to maintain accountability of assets.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going
concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless
management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The directors’ responsibilities include overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance
is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with SSAs will always detect a
material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually
or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of
these financial statements.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (Cont’d)
As part of an audit in accordance with SSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design
and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate
to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than
for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate
in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal
control.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the
audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant
doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we
are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such
disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to
the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as
a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and
whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair
presentation.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities
within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction,
supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with the directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant
audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide the directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding
independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on
our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with the directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit
of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our
auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances,
we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would
reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWSFOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019 85
1 General information
The Company is incorporated and domiciled in Singapore with its registered office and the principal place of business
at 3 HarbourFront Place #16-01 HarbourFront Tower Two, Singapore 099254. The Company is listed on the Mainboard
of Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGX-ST”).
The principal activity of the Company is investment holding. The principal activities of the subsidiaries are disclosed
in Note 7 to the financial statements.
The financial statements of the Group and the Company for the financial year ended 31 December 2019 were authorised
for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Directors on the date of the Directors’ statement.
2(a) Basis of preparation
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, Chapter 50 (the “Act”),
and Singapore Financial Reporting Standards (International) (“SFRS(I)”) including related Interpretations promulgated
by the Accounting Standards Council (“ASC”). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention except as disclosed in the accounting policies below.
The financial statements are presented in Singapore Dollar which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial
information, presented in Singapore Dollar, is rounded to the nearest thousand ($’000) unless otherwise stated.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with SFRS(I) requires the use of judgements, estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial year.
Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results
may differ from those estimates.
The critical accounting estimates and assumptions used and areas involving a significant judgement are described
below.
Significant judgements used in applying accounting policies
(a) Income taxes (Note 32)
The Group has exposure to income taxes in several jurisdictions. Significant judgement is involved in determining
the group-wide provision for income taxes. There are certain transactions and computations for which the
ultimate tax determination is uncertain during the ordinary course of business. The Group recognises liabilities
for expected tax issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due.
Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recognised, such
differences will impact the income tax and deferred tax provisions in the period in which such determination
is made.

(b) Determination of cash-generating units (CGU)
A CGU is defined as the smallest identifiable group of assets that generates cash inflows that are largely
independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets. Significant judgement is required
by management to determine whether multiple assets should be grouped to form a CGU. Management has
identified the appropriate CGU level to be either at the business segment or at the entity level.
(c) Classification of properties as investment properties (Note 6)
The Group classifies certain buildings and improvements as investment properties as these are leased out
to earn rental income. The Group has assessed and determined that an insignificant portion of investment
properties is held for own use in the supply of building management services and/or for administration purposes.
(d) Classification of property leases as operating lease (as lessor) (Note 35)
The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its investment properties. The Group has determined
that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties which are leased out on
operating leases. The carrying value of the Group’s operating leases (as lessor) as of 31 December 2019 is
S$104,709,000 (2018 – S$100,215,000).
(e) Determination of functional currency
The Group measures foreign currency translation in the respective currencies of the Company and its
subsidiaries. In determining the functional currencies of the entities in the Group, judgement is required to
determine the currency that mainly influences sales prices for goods and services and of the country whose
competitive forces and regulations mainly determines the sales prices of its goods and services. The functional
currencies of the entities in the Group are determined based on management’s assessment of the economic
environment in which the entities operate and the entities’ process of determining sales prices.
(f) Allowance for expected credit losses (ECL) of financing receivables (Note 9) and trade and other receivables
(Note 14)
Allowance for ECL of receivables are based on assumptions about risk of default and expected loss rates. The
Group uses judgement in making these assumptions and selecting the inputs to the ECL calculation, based
on the Group’s past collection history, existing market conditions as well as forward looking estimates at each
reporting date. Probability of default constitutes a key input in measuring ECL. Probability of default is an
estimate of the likelihood of default over a given time horizon, the calculation of which includes historical data,
current market conditions, assumptions and expectations of future conditions.

(f) Allowance for expected credit losses (ECL) of financing receivables (Note 9) and trade and other receivables
(Note 14) (Cont’d)
For financing receivables and non-trade receivables, the Group and the Company apply the general approach
to determine ECL. ECL is measured as an allowance equal to 12-month ECL for stage-1 (low credit risk) assets,
or lifetime ECL for stage-2 (deterioration in credit risk) or stage-3 (credit impaired) assets. An asset moves
from stage-1 to stage-2 when its credit risk increases significantly and subsequently to stage-3 as it becomes
credit-impaired. In assessing whether credit risk has significantly increased, the Group and the Company
consider qualitative and quantitative reasonable and supportable forward looking information. Lifetime ECL
represents ECL that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument
whereas 12-month ECL represents the portion of lifetime ECL expected to result from default events possible
within 12 months after the reporting date.
For receivables which are trade in nature, the Group and the Company apply the simplified approach and
uses a provision matrix to calculate ECL. The provision rates are based on days past due for groupings of
various customer segments that have similar loss patterns. The provision matrix is initially based on the Group
and the Company’s historical observed default rates. The Group and the Company will calibrate the matrix to
adjust historical credit loss experience with current market conditions and forward-looking information. The
assessment of the correlation between historical observed default rates, forecast economic conditions and ECL
is a significant estimate. The amount of ECL is sensitive to changes in circumstances and forecast economic
conditions.
The carrying amount of the Group’s financing receivables as at 31 December 2019 is S$1,394,814,000
(2018 – S$1,199,723,000).
The carrying amounts of the Company’s and the Group’s trade and other receivables as at 31 December 2019
amount to S$76,960,000 (2018 – S$81,393,000) and S$674,981,000 (2018 – S$703,775,000) respectively. A
decrease of 10% in the estimated future cash inflows will not lead to further allowance for impairment on the
Group’s financing and trade and other receivables.
(g) Deferred tax assets (Note 10)
Deferred tax assets are recognised for all unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit
will be available against which the losses can be utilised. Management judgements are required to determine
the amount of deferred tax assets that can be recognised based upon the likely timing and the level of future
taxable profits together with future tax planning strategies. The carrying amount of the Group’s deferred tax
assets as at 31 December 2019 are S$41,079,000 (2018 – S$34,542,000).

(h) Going concern
As at 31 December 2019, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by S$413,037,000
(2018 – S$346,467,000). The Company’s net current liability position is mainly due to loans of S$385,047,000
(2018: S$362,079,000) (Note 19) and amount owing to its subsidiaries of S$69,278,000 (2018 – S$40,776,000)
(Note 24). Excluding the loans and amount owing to its subsidiaries, the Company’s net current asset is
S$41,288,000 (2018 – S$56,388,000) as at 31 December 2019. The financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis as the Company is able to meet its current liabilities obligation for the next twelve
months either through the dividend from its subsidiaries, financing through capital market or the subsidiaries
not to recall the loans under the instruction from the Company.
As at 31 December 2019, the Group has cash and cash equivalents (Note 15) of S$230,524,000 (2018 –
S$228,879,000) and net current assets of S$142,724,000 (2018 – S$265,056,000) which is able to support
its working capital requirements. The Group has outstanding borrowings and debts securities (Notes 19 and
20) of S$1,678,107,000 (2018 – S$1,605,898,000) as at 31 December 2019 which is due within 12 months
after end of reporting period.
The Group is of the view that the preparation of financial statements on a going concern basis is appropriate
for the following reasons:
• the Group has unutilised credit facilities amounting to approximately S$2.08 billion (2018 – S$1.66 billion)
and is able to raise funds through bank borrowings and capital market; and
• the Group is able to collect its total trade receivables (including financing receivables) as they fall due
to settle its current liabilities.
(i) Determination of the lease term (Note 23)
In determining the lease term, management considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic
incentive to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option. Extension options (or periods
after termination options) are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended
(or not terminated). The lease term is reassessed if an option is actually exercised (or not exercised) or the
Group becomes obliged to exercise (or not exercise) it. The assessment of reasonable certainty is only revised
if a significant event or a significant change in circumstances occurs, which affects the assessment, and that is
within the control of the lessee. For leases of premises, plant and equipment, and motor vehicles, the following
factors are normally the most relevant:
• If there are significant penalties to terminate (or not extend), the Group is typically reasonably certain
to extend (or not terminate).
• If any leasehold improvements are expected to have a significant remaining value, the Group is typically
reasonably certain to extend (or not terminate).
• Otherwise, the Group considers other factors including historical lease durations and the costs and
business disruption required to replace the leased asset.
As at 31 December 2019, potential future cash outflows of S$1,785,196 (undiscounted) have not been included
in the lease liability because it is not reasonably certain that the leases will be extended (or not terminated).
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019 89
2(a) Basis of preparation (Cont’d)
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions used in applying accounting policies
(a) Pension and employee benefits (Note 21)
The determination of the Group’s obligation cost for pension and employee benefits liabilities is dependent on
its selection of certain assumptions used by the independent actuaries in calculating such amounts. Those
assumptions include among others, discount rates, future annual salary increase, annual employee turn-over
rate, disability rate, retirement age and mortality rate. Actual results that differ from the Group’s assumptions
are recognised in profit or loss as and when they occurred. While the Group believes that its assumptions are
reasonable and appropriate, significant changes in the Group’s assumptions may materially affect its estimated
liabilities for pension and employee benefits and net employee benefits expense. The carrying amount of
employee benefit liabilities as at 31 December 2019 amounts to S$43,867,000 (2018 – S$36,709,000).
If the discount rate decreases by 1% from management’s estimates, the present value of the pension and
employee benefits obligation will increase by S$2,371,000 (2018 – S$1,440,000).
(b) Depreciation of property, plant and equipment (Note 4)
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.
Management estimates the useful lives of these property, plant and equipment to be within 1 to 80 years.
Changes in the expected level of usage and technological development could impact the economic useful lives
and residual values of these assets, therefore future depreciation charges could be revised.
The carrying amount of the Company’s and the Group’s property, plant and equipment as at 31 December
2019 are S$158,000 (2018 – S$310,000) and S$1,153,404,000 (2018 – S$769,129,000) respectively. If the
depreciation of the property, plant and equipment increases/decreases by 10%, the Group’s loss for the year
will increase/decrease by S$6,316,000 (2018 – S$7,051,000).
(c) Amortisation of intangible assets (Note 3)
Intangible assets are accounted for using the cost model with the exception of goodwill. Capitalised costs are
amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives for those with finite useful lives. Management
estimates the useful lives of these intangible assets to be within 3 to 20 years. After initial recognition, they are
carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. In addition, they are
subject to impairment testing if there are any indicators of impairment. Indefinite life intangibles are subject to
annual impairment testing and more frequently, if there are any indicators of impairment.
Intangibles assets are written off where, in the opinion of the management, no further economic benefits
are expected to arise. The carrying amounts of the Company’s and the Group’s intangible assets,
excluding goodwill, as at 31 December 2019 are S$27,000 (2018 – S$62,000) and S$216,602,000
(2018 – S$232,776,000) respectively. If the amortisation of intangible assets increases/decreases by 10%, the
Group’s loss for the year will increase/decrease by S$1,632,000 (2018 – S$1,631,000).

(d) Depreciation of investment properties (Note 6)
Investment properties are accounted for using the cost model and are depreciated on a straight-line basis
over their estimated useful lives and impaired if necessary. Management estimates the useful lives of these
investment properties to be within 3 to 30 years. The carrying value of the investment properties are reviewed
when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
The carrying amount of the Group’s investment properties as at 31 December 2019 is S$101,775,000
(2018 – S$182,203,000). If the depreciation of the investment properties increases/decreases by 10%, the
Group’s loss for the year will increase/decrease by S$2,824,000 (2018 – S$2,895,000).
(e) Estimation of the incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) (Note 23)
For the purpose of calculating the right-of-use asset and lease liability, an entity applies the interest rate implicit
in the lease (“IRIIL”) and, if the IRIIL is not readily determinable, the entity shall use its IBR applicable to the
lease asset.
The IBR is the rate of interest that the entity would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar
security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic
environment. For most of the leases whereby the Group is the lessee, the IRIIL is not readily determinable.
Therefore, the Group estimates the IBR relevant to each lease asset by using observable inputs (such as market
interest rate and asset yield) when available, and then making certain lessee specific adjustments (such as a
group entity’s credit rating). The carrying amount of the Group’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are
disclosed in Notes 5 and 23 respectively.
An increase/decrease of 50 basis points in the estimated IBR will not significantly decrease/increase the Group’s
right-of-use assets and vice versa, the lease liabilities.
(f) Fair value of financial instruments
The Group carries certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Where the fair values of financial assets
and financial liabilities recorded on the statements of financial position cannot be derived from active markets,
they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques that include the use of the mathematical models.
The inputs to these models are derived from observable market data where possible. Where observable data
are not available, judgement are required to establish the fair value. The judgement includes considerations of
liquidity and model inputs such as volatility and discount rate, prepayment rates and default rate assumptions,
which fair value would differ if the Group utilised different valuation methodology. Any changes in fair values of
these financial assets and liabilities would affect directly the Group’s profit or loss.
Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation
techniques as follows:
• Level 1 : quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 : inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
• Level 3 : inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable
inputs).

2(a) Basis of preparation (Cont’d)
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions used in applying accounting policies (Cont’d)
(f) Fair value of financial instruments (Cont’d)
If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability might be categorised in different levels of
the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the
fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement (with Level 3 being
the lowest).
The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period
during which the change has occurred.
Further information about the assumptions made in measuring the fair values is included in the following note:
• Note 26 – Derivative financial instruments
The carrying amount of the Group’s derivative financial assets as at 31 December 2019 is S$2,745,000
(2018 – S$23,337,000) and the carrying amount of the Group’s derivative financial liabilities as at
31 December 2019 is S$41,424,000 (2018 – S$1,139,000).
If the fair value of the Group’s derivative financial assets and derivative financial liabilities increase/decrease
by 10%, the Group’s other comprehensive loss for the year will decrease/increase by S$3,870,000
(2018 – S$2,220,000).
(g) Valuation of unquoted equity instruments (Note 11)
The Group owns unquoted equity investments in shares and elected to measure these equity instruments at
FVOCI due to the Group’s intention to hold these equity instruments for long-term appreciation.
These investments, stated at their fair values (Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy), are based on management
valuations using external valuers. Estimating the fair value is a complex process involving judgements and
estimates regarding various inputs and underlying assumptions. This is due to the nature of the underlying
assets comprising many categories of assets and liabilities recorded in the statement of financial position of
the investee. The valuation of these investments is determined using the adjusted net assets method that
involves the use of unobservable inputs. The valuations are sensitive to key assumptions applied in deriving
at the significant unobservable inputs i.e. a small change in the assumptions may have a significant impact to
the valuation.
The fair value amounts ascribed to these investments is disclosed in Note 11. The carrying amount of the
Group’s equity instruments at FVOCI as at 31 December 2019 is S$132,793,000 (2018: S$251,167,000).
An increase/decrease of 10% in the investments’ net asset value, the Group’s unquoted equity instruments
will increase/decrease by S$13,280,000 (2018 – S$25,120,000).

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions used in applying accounting policies (Cont’d)
(h) Allowance for decline in market values and obsolescence of land inventories (Note 12) and other inventories
(Note 13)
Allowance for decline in market values and obsolescence of inventories is estimated based on the best available
facts and circumstances including but not limited to the inventories’ own physical conditions, their market selling
prices, estimated costs of completion and estimated costs to be incurred for their sales. The provisions are
re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information received affects the amount estimated.
The carrying amount of the Group’s land inventories and other inventories as at 31 December 2019 are
S$595,241,000 (2018 – S$594,654,000) and S$274,606,000 (2018 – S$359,552,000) respectively. If the net
realisable value of the inventories decreases by 10% from management’s estimates, the Group’s loss for the
year will increase by S$580,000 (2018 – S$428,000).
(i) Impairment of goodwill (Note 3)
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and whenever there is indication that the goodwill may be impaired.
The assessment of impairment of goodwill is determined based on the recoverable amount of the Group’s
smallest cash-generating units (“CGU”), either at the business segment or entity level. The recoverable amount
of the CGU is determined based on value-in-use calculation.
This calculation uses cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by management covering a
five-year period and use of estimates (Note 3). The carrying amount of goodwill as at 31 December 2019 is
S$427,460,000 (2018 – S$483,458,000).
A decrease of 5% in the gross profit margin or in the growth rate, or an increase of 50 basis points in the
discount rate, as applied in the VIU calculations, will not lead to further impairment loss recognised on the
goodwill.
(j) Impairment in investment in subsidiaries and associates (Notes 7 and 8)
Determining whether investments in subsidiaries and associates are impaired requires an estimation of the
value-in-use of that investment. The value-in-use calculation requires the Company and the Group to estimate
the future cash flows expected from the cash generating units and an appropriate discount rate in order to
calculate the present value of the future cash flows. Management has evaluated the recoverability of the
investments based on such estimates. If the present value of estimated future cash flows decreased by 1%
from management’s estimates, is not likely to materially affect the carrying amount.
The carrying amount of the Company’s investment in subsidiaries and the Group’s investment in associates
as at 31 December 2019 are S$2,460,620,000 (2018 – S$2,537,174,000) and S$149,940,000 (2018 –
S$116,269,000) respectively.

1 January 2019
The adoption of these new or amended SFRS(I) and INT SFRS(I) did not result in substantial changes to the Group’s
accounting policies and had no material effect on the amounts reported for the current or prior financial years, except
as discussed below:
SFRS(I) 16 Leases
SFRS(I) 16 Leases supersedes SFRS(I) 1-17 Leases, SFRS(I) INT 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a
Lease, SFRS(I) INT 1-15 Operating Leases – Incentives and SFRS(I) INT 1-27 Evaluating the Substance of Transactions
involving the Legal Form of a Lease, and pronounces new or amended requirements with respect to lease accounting.
For lessee accounting, SFRS(I) 16 introduces significant changes by removing the distinction between operating
and finance lease and requiring the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at commencement for all
leases, except for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets when such recognition exemptions are adopted.
For lessor accounting, the requirements have remained largely unchanged. The impact of the adoption of SFRS(I) 16
on the Group’s financial statements are discussed below.
The date of initial application of SFRS(I) 16 for the Group is 1 January 2019. The Group has elected to transition to
SFRS(I) 16 using the cumulative catch-up (or modified retrospective) approach requires the Group to recognise the
cumulative effect of initially applying SFRS(I) 16 at the date of initial application, without restatement of comparatives
under SFRS(I) 1-17.

GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 201994
2(b) Adoption of new and revised SFRS(I) effective in 2019 (Cont’d)
SFRS(I) 16 Leases (Cont’d)
(a) Definition of a lease
The new definition of a lease under SFRS(I) 16 mainly relates to the concept of ‘control’ that determines
whether a contract contains a lease on the basis of whether the customer has the right to control the use of
an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration, which is in contrast to the concept of
‘risks and rewards’ under SFRS(I) 1-17.
The Group has elected to apply the practical expedient available on transition to SFRS(I) 16 not to reassess
whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. Accordingly, the superseded definition of a lease under SFRS(I) 1-17
continues to be applied to those leases entered into, or modified, before 1 January 2019, and the Group applies
the new definition of a lease and related guidance set out in SFRS(I) 16 only to those lease contracts entered
into, or modified, on or after 1 January 2019. After the transition to SFRS(I) 16, the Group shall reassess whether
a contract is, or contains, a lease only if the terms and conditions of the contract are changed.
The new requirements for identifying a lease under SFRS(I) 16 do not change significantly the scope of contracts
that will meet the definition of a lease for the Group.
(b) Lessee accounting
(i) Former operating leases
Before the adoption of SFRS(I) 16, the Group’s non-cancellable operating lease payments in future
reporting periods for office premises, warehouse and land rental, rental of transportation equipment
and motor vehicles, were not recognised as liabilities in the statement of financial position but were
disclosed as commitments in the notes to the financial statements, and these lease payments were
reported as rental expenses in profit or loss over the lease term on a straight-line basis and presented
under operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Under SFRS(I) 16, the Group recognises
right-of-use assets and lease liabilities in the statement of financial position for these outstanding lease
payments, reports depreciation of right-of-use assets and interest expense on lease liabilities in profit
or loss, and presents these lease payments as principal repayment and interest paid separately under
financing activities in the statement of cash flows.
Under SFRS(I) 16, lease incentives are recognised as part of the measurement of the right-of-use assets
and lease liabilities whereas under SFRS(I)1-17, they resulted in the recognition of a lease incentive
liability, amortised as a reduction of rental expenses on a straight-line basis.
The Group has elected, as a practical expedient of SFRS(I) 16, not to separate non-lease components
from lease components for all classes of underlying assets and instead account for each lease
component and any associated non-lease components as a single lease component, except if the
non-lease component is an embedded derivative according to SFRS(I) 9.
For short-term leases and leases of low-value assets, the Group has elected for exemption under
SFRS(I) 16 from recognising their right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, and to report their lease
expenses in profit or loss on a straight-line basis.

SFRS(I) 16 Leases (Cont’d)
(b) Lessee accounting (Cont’d)
(i) Former operating leases (Cont’d)
On 1 January 2019, the Group has applied the following SFRS(I) 16 transition provisions under the
cumulative catch-up approach for each lease, or each portfolio of leases with reasonably similar
characteristics, formerly classified as operating lease under SFRS(I) 1-17:
• recognises a lease liability at the present value of the remaining lease payments using the lessee’s
incremental borrowing rate for the underlying lease asset;
• recognises a right-of-use asset, on a lease-by-lease basis, for office premises, warehouse and
land rental, rental of transportation equipment and motor vehicles, at an amount equal to the
lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to
that lease recognised in the statement of financial position immediately before the date of initial
application; and
• applies SFRS(I) 1-36 Impairment of Assets to perform an impairment review of the right-of-use
asset.
The Group has adopted the following SFRS(I) 16 practical expedients when applying the cumulative
catch-up transition approach to leases formerly classified as operating lease under SFRS(I) 1-17:
• applies a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics;
• elects not to recognise the right-of-use asset and lease liability for a lease with lease term ending
within twelve months of the date of initial application;
• excludes initial direct costs from the measurement of the right-of-use asset at the date of initial
application; and
• uses hindsight for determining the lease term when the contract contains options to extend or
terminate the lease.
(ii) Former finance leases
On 1 January 2019, with regards to the Group’s leases of transportation equipment and motor vehicles
that were formerly classified as finance lease under SFRS(I) 1-17, the carrying amounts of the leased
assets (in property, plant and equipment) and obligations under finance lease immediately before the date
of initial application become respectively the opening balance of the carrying amounts of right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities under SFRS(I) 16. Subsequently, the Group accounts for these right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities in accordance with SFRS(I) 16.

SFRS(I) 16 Leases (Cont’d)
(c) Lessor accounting
SFRS(I) 16 has not changed substantially how the Group as lessor accounts for leases, except when it is the
intermediate lessor of sublease. Under SFRS(I) 16, the Group continues to classify leases, where it is the lessor,
as either finance lease or operating lease and to account for the two types of leases differently. However,
SFRS(I) 16 changes and expands the disclosures required, in particular, regarding how the Group as lessor
manages the risks arising from its residual interest in leased assets.
Intermediate lessor of sublease
The Group subleases to a non-related party an office premise which the Group leases under a separate head
lease arrangement. Prior to the adoption of SFRS(I) 16, the sublease was classified as an operating lease
because the head lease was an operating lease. Under SFRS(I) 1-17, the Group as intermediate lessor recorded
rental income in respect of the sublease on a straight-line basis over the term of the sublease and recorded
rental expense in respect of the head lease on a straight-line basis over the term of the head lease.
Under SFRS(I) 16, lessor accounting by the Group as intermediate lessor depends on the classification of the
sublease with reference to the right-of-use asset arising from the head lease rather than the underlying asset.
On 1 January 2019, the Group has reassessed the classification of the sublease to continue to be an operating
lease based on the remaining contractual terms and condition of the head lease.
The amendments did not have any significant impact on the Group’s financial statements when the Group is
intermediate lessor.
(d) Deferred tax effects on adoption of SFRS(I) 16
In certain jurisdictions that the Group operates in, tax deductions are available only for the lease payments as
they are paid, and no tax deduction is allowed for the leased asset depreciation or finance cost. On 1 January
2019, these tax circumstances give rise to temporary differences on initial recognition of both the right-of-use
asset and lease liability. Management has assessed the deferred tax adjustments arising from the adoption of
SFRS(I) 16 and there is no material net impact on the financial statements of the Group.
The effects of adoption of SFRS(I) 16 on the Group’s financial statements are disclosed in Note 43.

SFRS(I) INT 23 Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments
The Group has adopted SFRS(I) INT 23 for the first time in the current year. SFRS(I) INT 23 sets out how to determine
the accounting tax position when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. The Interpretation requires the
Group to:
• determine whether uncertain tax positions are assessed separately or as a group; and
• assess whether it is probable that a tax authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment used, or proposed to
be used, by an entity in its income tax filings, as follows:
– if yes, the Group should determine its accounting tax position consistently with the tax treatment used
or planned to be used in its income tax filings; or
– if no, the Group should reflect the effect of uncertainty in determining its accounting tax position using
either the most likely amount or the expected value method.
There is no material impact to the Group’s and the Company’s financial statements.

Amendments to SFRS(I) 1-1 and SFRS(I) 1-8: Definition of Material
The amendments clarify the definition of material and how it should be applied by including in the definition guidance.
The new definition of material states that “Information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably
be expected to influence the decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis
of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity.” The amendments
clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information. An entity will need to assess whether
the information, either individually or in combination with other information, is material in the context of the financial
statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions made
by the primary users.
Amendments to SFRS(I) 3: Definition of a Business
The amendments are changes to Appendix A Defined terms, the application guidance, and the illustrative examples
of SFRS(I) 3 only that:
• clarify that to be considered a business, an acquired set of activities and assets must include, as a minimum,
an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs;
• narrow the definitions of a business and of outputs by focusing on goods and services provided to customers
and by removing the reference to an ability to reduce costs;
• add guidance and illustrative examples to help entities assess whether a substantive process has been acquired;
• remove the assessment of whether market participants are capable of replacing any missing inputs or processes
and continuing to produce outputs; and
• add an optional concentration test that permits a simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of activities
and assets is not a business.
2(d) Significant accounting policies
(i) Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries
as at the end of the reporting period. The financial statements of the subsidiaries used in the preparation of
the consolidated financial statements are prepared for the same reporting date as the Company. Consistent
accounting policies are applied to like transactions and events in similar circumstances.
All intra-group balances, income and expenses and unrealised gains and losses resulting from intragroup
transactions and dividends are eliminated in full.
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the date on which the Group obtains control
and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases.
Losses and other comprehensive income are attributable to the non-controlling interests even if that results
in a deficit balance.

2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(i) Consolidation (Cont’d)
Subsidiary and existence of control
A subsidiary is an investee that is controlled by the Group. The Group controls an investee when it is exposed,
or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns
through its power over the investee.
Thus, the Group controls an investee if and only if the Group has all of the following:
– power over the investee;
– exposure, or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
– the ability to use its power over the investee to affect its returns
The Group re-assesses whether or not it controls an investee if facts and circumstances indicate that there
are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.
When the Group has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee
when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee
unilaterally. The Group considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Group’s
voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including:
– the size of the Group’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the
other vote holders;
– potential voting rights held by the Group, other vote holders or other parties;
– rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and
– any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Group has, or does not have, the current
ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting
patterns at previous shareholders’ meetings.
Non-controlling interests
Non-controlling interests represents the equity in subsidiaries not attributable, directly or indirectly, to owners
of the Company, and are presented separately in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income and
within equity in the consolidated statement of financial position, separately from equity attributable to owners
of the Company.

2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(i) Consolidation (Cont’d)
Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without loss of control
Changes in the Company owners’ ownership interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control
are accounted for as equity transactions. In such circumstances, the carrying amount of the controlling and
non-controlling interests is adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any
difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests is adjusted and the fair value of the
consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity and attributed to owners of the Company.
Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries resulting in loss of control
When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it:
– de-recognises the assets (including goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary at their carrying amounts
as at that date when control is lost;
– de-recognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests;
– de-recognises the cumulative translation differences recorded in equity;
– recognises the fair value of the consideration received;
– recognises the fair value of any investment retained;
– recognises any surplus or deficit in profit or loss; and
– re-classifies the Group’s share of components previously recognised in other comprehensive income
to profit or loss or retained earnings, as appropriate.
When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss and is calculated
as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of
any retained interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), and liabilities of
the subsidiary and any non-controlling interests. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive
income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets
or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or transferred to another category of equity as
specified/permitted by applicable SFRS(I)). The investment retained in the former subsidiary at the date when
the control is lost is remeasured to its fair value. This fair value becomes the initial carrying amount for the
purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset.

GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019 101
2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(ii) Business combination
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred
for the acquisition of a subsidiary comprises:
– the fair values of the assets transferred,
– the liabilities incurred to the former owners of the acquiree,
– the equity interests issued by the Group,
– the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement and
– fair value of any pre-existing equity interest in the subsidiary.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are
measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interests
in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests’
proportionate share of the recognised amounts of acquiree’s identifiable net assets.
Where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted
to their present value as at the date of exchange. The discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing
rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under
comparable terms and conditions.
Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial
liability are subsequently remeasured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously
held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising
from such remeasurement are recognised in profit or loss.
(iii) Intangible assets
Intangible assets are accounted for using the cost model with the exception of goodwill. Capitalised costs are
amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives for those considered as finite useful lives.
After initial recognition, they are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment
losses, if any. In addition, they are subject to annual impairment testing, if there are any indicators of impairment.
Indefinite life intangibles are not amortised but are subject to annual impairment testing.
Intangible assets are written off where, in the opinion of the Directors, no further future economic benefits are
expected to arise.

(iii) Intangible assets (Cont’d)
a. Goodwill
Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries on or after 1 January 2010 represents the excess of the
consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree and the
acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the net
identifiable assets acquired.
Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries prior to 1 January 2010 and on acquisition of joint ventures and
associated companies represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the fair value of the
Group’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired.
Goodwill on subsidiaries and joint ventures is recognised separately as intangible assets and carried at
cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Goodwill on associated companies is included in the carrying amount of the investments.
Gains and losses on the disposal of subsidiaries, joint ventures and associated companies include the
carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold, except for goodwill arising from acquisition prior
to 1 January 2001. Such goodwill was adjusted against retained profits in the year of acquisition and
is not recognised in profit or loss on disposal.
b. Dealerships and distributorships
Dealerships and distributorships are amortised on straight-line basis over their useful life of 20 years.
c. Computer software
Costs relating to computer software acquired, which are not an integral part of related hardware, are
capitalised and amortised on a straight-line basis over their useful life of 3 years.

2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(iv) Property, plant and equipment and depreciation
Property, plant and equipment, other than construction-in-progress, are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is computed utilising the straight-line
method to allocate the depreciable amount of these assets over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Years
Leasehold land 15 – 80Land improvements 20Landfill 3Building and infrastructures 3 – 30Golf course 36 – 45Utilities plant and machinery 3 – 30Machinery and equipment 3 – 15Vessels and ferry equipment 4 – 15Working wharf 3Transportation equipment and vehicles 3 – 8Medical equipment 7Furniture, fixtures and equipment 1 – 10Office equipment 2 – 5Resort equipment 3 – 5Reservoir 30Telecommunication equipment 10 – 30Leasehold improvements 5
Construction-in-progress is stated at cost. The accumulated costs will be reclassified to the appropriate
property, plant and equipment account when the construction is substantially completed and the asset is ready
for its intended use. No depreciation is provided on construction-in-progress.
Costs incurred in the general overhaul of the main engines of vessels during dry docking are capitalised and
depreciated over 3 to 5 years.
The cost of property, plant and equipment includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of
the items. Dismantlement, removal or restoration costs are included as part of the cost of property, plant and
equipment if the obligation for dismantlement, removal or restoration is incurred as a consequence of acquiring
or using the asset. Cost may also include transfers from equity of any gains/losses on qualifying cash flow
hedges of foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Subsequent expenditure relating to property, plant and equipment that have been recognised is added to the
carrying amount of the asset when it is probable that future economic benefits, in excess of the standard of
performance of the asset before the expenditure was made, will flow to the Group and the cost can be reliably
measured. Other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense during the financial year in which it is
incurred.
For acquisitions and disposals during the financial year, depreciation is provided from the year of acquisition and
to the year before disposal respectively. For acquisitions, less than S$1,000, they are expended as expenses
in the profit or loss. Fully depreciated property, plant and equipment are retained in the books of accounts
until they are no longer in use.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed, and adjusted as appropriate, at each
reporting date as a change in estimates.

(v) Investment properties
Investment properties consist of buildings and improvements that are held to earn rental yields, including
portions of buildings which could not be sold separately, and where an insignificant portion is held for use in
the supply of services or for administrative purposes.
The Group applies the cost model. Investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation,
less any impairment in value similar to that for property, plant and equipment. Such costs include the cost
of replacing part of an existing investment property at the time that cost is incurred if the recognition criteria
are met; and excludes the costs of day to day servicing of an investment property. Depreciation is computed
using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the investment properties of 3 – 30 years, as
applicable for each investment property.
Investment properties are de-recognised when either they have been disposed of or when the investment
property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal.
On disposal or retirement of an investment property, the difference between any disposal proceeds and the
carrying amount is recognised in the profit or loss.
The carrying value of investment properties are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If such indication exists and where the
carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amounts, the assets are written down to their recoverable
amounts.
Transfers are made to investment property when, and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by
ending of owner-occupation or commencement of an operating lease to another party. Transfers are made
from the investment property when and only when, there is a change in use, evidenced by the commencement
of owner-occupation or commencement of development with a view to sell.
(vi) Investment in subsidiaries
In the Company’s separate financial statements, shares in subsidiaries are stated at cost less allowance for
any impairment losses on an individual subsidiary basis.
(vii) Investment in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has the power to participate in the financial and operating policy
decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control of those policies.
The Group accounts for its investments in associates using the equity method from the date on which it
becomes an associate.
On acquisition of the investment, any excess of the cost of the investment over the Group’s share of the net fair
value of the investee’s identifiable assets and liabilities is accounted as goodwill and is included in the carrying
amount of the investment. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the investee’s identifiable
assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment is included as income in the determination of the entity’s
share of the associate’s profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.

GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019 105
2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(vii) Investment in associates (Cont’d)
Under the equity method, the investment in associates are carried in the consolidated statement of financial
position at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Group’s share of net assets of the associates. The profit or
loss reflects the share of results of operations of the associates. Distributions received from associates reduce
the carrying amount of the investment. Where there has been a change recognised in other comprehensive
income by the associates, the Group recognises its share of such changes in other comprehensive income.
Unrealised gains and loss resulting from transaction between the Group and the associate are eliminated to
the extent of the interest in the associates.
When the Group’s share of losses in associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, the Group does
not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
After application of the equity method, the Group determines whether it is necessary to recognise an additional
impairment loss, on the Group’s investment in associate. The Group determines at the end of each reporting
period whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the
case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the
associate and its carrying value and recognises the amount in profit or loss.
The financial statements of the associate are prepared as of the same reporting date as the Company unless
it is impracticable to do so. When the financial statements of an associate used in applying the equity method
are prepared as of a different reporting date from that of the Company, adjustments are made for the effects
of significant transactions or events that occur between that date and the reporting date of the Company.
Upon loss of significant influence or joint control over the associate, the Group measures the retained interest
at fair value. Any difference between the fair value of the aggregate of the retained interest and proceeds
from disposal and the carrying amount of the investment at the date the equity method was discontinued is
recognised in profit or loss.
The Group accounts for all amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that
associate on the same basis as would have been required if that associate or joint venture had directly disposed
of the related assets or liabilities.
When an investment in an associate becomes an investment in a joint venture, the Group continues to apply
the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest.
If the Group’s ownership interest in an associate is reduced, but the Group continues to apply the equity
method, the Group reclassifies to profit or loss the proportion of the gain or loss that had previously been
recognised in other comprehensive income relating to that reduction in ownership interest if that gain or loss
would be required to be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities.

(viii) Inventories
a. Land
Land inventories are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost of land inventories is
recorded at cost. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less costs to be incurred
in selling the land.
Cost of land inventories includes cost of land, borrowing costs and other costs directly or indirectly
related to the acquisition and development of the land for sale. These costs are capitalised during the
period such activities that are necessary to get these assets ready for sale are in progress. Capitalisation
of these costs will cease when land development is completed and the land is available for sale.
The costs incurred in the development of the resort and common areas/facilities are allocated
proportionally to the saleable parcels of land. Other land development costs incurred are allocated to
each parcel of land using the specific identification method.
Land inventories are de-recognised when it has been sold as an integral part with sale of land and no
future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Cost of land infrastructure inventory on sale of
land or loss from disposal is recognised in the profit or loss in the year of sale or disposal.
b. Other inventories
Other inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is generally determined
on a first-in, first-out basis, specific identification and average methods. The cost of finished goods and
work-in-progress comprises goods held for resale, raw materials, labour and an appropriate portion
of overheads. Allowance is made for obsolete, slow moving or defective inventory in arriving at the net
realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business
less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
(ix) Financial instruments
A financial instrument is any contract that gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial liability or
equity instrument of another entity.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the consolidated statements
of financial position if, and only if, there is a currently enforceable legal rights to offset the recognised amounts
and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

(x) Financial assets
a. Classification
The Group classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
• those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through profit or loss),
and
• those to be measured at amortised cost.
The classification depends on the Group’s business model for managing the financial assets and the
contractual terms of the cash flows.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in profit or loss or OCI. For
investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading, this will depend on whether the Group
has made an irrevocable election at the time of initial recognition to account for the equity instruments
at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
The Group reclassifies debt instruments when and only when its business model for managing those
assets changes.
b. Recognition and de-recognition
Regular way purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on trade-date, the date on which
the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are de-recognised when the rights
to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and the Group
has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
c. Measurement
At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial
asset not at fair value through profit or loss (FVPL), transaction costs that are directly attributable to the
acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at FVPL are expensed
in profit or loss.
Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when determining whether
their cash flows are solely payment of principal and interest.

c. Measurement (Cont’d)
Debt instruments
Subsequent measurement of debt instruments depends on the Group’s business model for managing
the asset and the cash flow characteristics of the asset. There are three measurement categories into
which the Group classifies its debt instruments:
• Amortised cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash
flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortised cost. Interest
income from these financial assets is included in finance income using the effective interest rate
method. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition is recognised directly in profit or loss and
presented in other gains/(losses) together with foreign exchange gains and losses. Impairment
losses are presented as separate line item in the statement of profit or loss.
• FVOCI: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial
assets, where the assets’ cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are
measured at FVOCI. Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the
recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest income and foreign exchange gains and
losses which are recognised in profit or loss. When the financial asset is de-recognised, the
cumulative gain or loss previously recognised in OCI is reclassified from equity to profit or loss
and recognised in other gains/(losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included
in finance income using the effective interest rate method. Foreign exchange gains and losses
are presented in other gains/(losses) and impairment expenses are presented as separate line
item in the statement of profit or loss.
• FVPL: Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortised cost or FVOCI are measured at FVPL. A
gain or loss on a debt instrument that is subsequently measured at FVPL is recognised in profit
or loss and presented net within other gains/(losses) in the period in which it arises.
Equity instruments
The Group subsequently measures all equity instruments at fair value. Where the Group’s management
has elected to present fair value gains and losses on equity instruments in OCI, there is no subsequent
reclassification of fair value gains and losses to profit or loss following the de-recognition of the
investment. Dividends from such investments continue to be recognised in profit or loss as other income
when the Group’s right to receive payments is established.
Changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVPL are recognised in other gains/(losses) in the
statement of profit or loss as applicable. Impairment losses (and reversal of impairment losses) on equity
instruments measured at FVOCI are not reported separately from other changes in fair value.
The Group has elected to measure these equity instruments at FVOCI due to the Group’s intention to
hold these equity instruments for long-term appreciation.

2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(x) Financial assets (Cont’d)
d. Impairment
The Group assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses (ECL) associated with its debt
instruments not held at FVTPL. ECL are based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due
in accordance with the contract and all the cash flows that the Group expects to receive, discounted at
an approximation of the original effective interest rate. The expected cash flows will include cash flows
from the sale of collateral held or other credit enhancements that are integral to the contractual terms.
The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit
risk. ECL are recognised in two stages. For credit exposures for which there has not been a significant
increase in credit risk since initial recognition, ECL are provided for credit losses that result from default
events that are possible within the next 12 months (a 12-month ECL). For those credit exposures for
which there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition, a loss allowance is
recognised for credit losses expected over the remaining life of the exposure, irrespective of timing of
the default (a lifetime ECL).
For receivables which are trade in nature, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculating ECL.
Therefore, the Group does not track changes in credit risk, but instead recognises a loss allowance
based on lifetime ECL at each reporting date. The Group has established a provision matrix that is based
on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to the debtors and
the economic environment.
Significant increase in credit risk
In assessing whether the credit risk on a financial instrument has increased significantly since initial
recognition, the Group compares the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the
reporting date with the risk of a default occurring on the financial instrument as at the date of initial
recognition. In making this assessment, the Group considers both quantitative and qualitative information
that is reasonable and supportable, including historical experience and forward-looking information that
is available without undue cost or effort.
The Group presumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly since initial
recognition when contractual payments are more than 30 days past due, unless the Group has
reasonable and supportable information that demonstrates otherwise.
In particular, the following information is taken into account when assessing whether credit risk has
increased significantly since initial recognition:
• existing or forecast adverse changes in business, financial or economic conditions that are
expected to cause a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its debt obligations;
• an actual or expected significant deterioration in the operating results of the debtor;
• significant increases in credit risk on other financial instruments of the same debtor; and
• an actual or expected significant adverse change in the regulatory, economic, or technological
environment of the debtor that results in a significant decrease in the debtor’s ability to meet its
debt obligations.

(x) Financial assets (Cont’d)
d. Impairment (Cont’d)
Credit-impaired financial asset
A financial asset is credit-impaired when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the
estimated future cash flows of that financial asset have occurred. Evidence that a financial asset is
credit-impaired includes observable data about the following events:
• significant financial difficulty of the issuer or the borrower;
• a breach of contract, such as a default or past due event;
• the lender(s) of the borrower, for economic or contractual reasons relating to the borrower’s
financial difficulty, having granted to the borrower a concession(s) that the lender(s) would not
otherwise consider;
• it is becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
or
• the disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties.
Definition of default
The Group considers the following as constituting an event of default for internal credit risk management
purposes, as historical experience indicates that receivables that meet either of the following criteria
are generally not recoverable:
• when there is a breach of financial covenants by the counterparty; or
• information developed internally or obtained from external sources indicates that the debtor is
unlikely to pay its creditors, including the Group, in full (without taking into account any collaterals
held by the Group).
The Group considers that default has occurred when a financial asset is more than 90 days past due
unless the Group has reasonable and supportable information to demonstrate that a more lagging
default criterion is more appropriate.
Measurement of expected credit losses
The measurement of ECL is a function of the probability of default, loss given default (i.e. the magnitude
of the loss if there is a default) and the exposure at default. The assessment of the probability of default
and loss given default is based on historical data adjusted by forward-looking information. As for the
exposure at default, for financial assets, this is represented by the assets’ gross carrying amount at
the reporting date; for loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts, the exposure includes
the amount drawn down as at the reporting date, together with any additional amounts expected to
be drawn down in the future by the default date determined based on historical trend, the Group’s
understanding of the specific future financing needs of the debtors, and other relevant forward-looking
information.

d. Impairment (Cont’d)
Write-off policy
The Group writes off a financial asset when there is information indicating that the counterparty is in
severe financial difficulty and there is no realistic prospect of recovery, e.g. when the counterparty has
been placed under liquidation or has entered into bankruptcy proceedings. Financial assets written off
may still be subject to enforcement activities under the Group’s recovery procedures, taking into account
legal advice where appropriate. Any recoveries made are recognised in the profit or loss.
e. Determination of fair value
The fair values of quoted financial assets are based on quoted market prices. If the market for a financial
asset is not active, the Group establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. These include
the use of recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the
same, discounted cash flow analysis, and option pricing models refined to reflect the issuer’s specific
circumstances.
(xi) Financing receivables
(a) Consumer financing receivables
Consumer financing receivables are presented net of amounts financed by banks relating to the
cooperation transactions of loan channelling, unearned consumer financing income and allowance for
impairment loss on consumer financing receivables.
Based on the consumer joint financing agreements (without recourse), the Group only presents the
portion of the total instalments receivable financing by the subsidiaries (net approach). The consumer
financing income is presented net of amounts of the banks’ rights on such income relating to the
transactions.
For consumer joint financing, receivable take over and channelling agreements (with recourse), consumer
financing receivables represent all customers’ instalments and the total facilities financed by creditors are
recorded as liability (gross approach). Interest earned from customers is recorded as part of consumer
financing income, while interest charged by the creditors is recorded as part of financing charges.
Unearned income on consumer financing, which is the excess of the aggregate instalment payments to
be received from the consumers over the principal amount financed, plus or deducted with the financing
process administration fees or expenses, is recognised as income over the term of the respective
agreement using effective interest rate method.
The processing fees, which are incurred at the first time the financing agreement is signed and directly
attributable to consumer financing, are recognised as administration income. Early terminations are
treated as cancellation of existing consumer finance contracts and the resulting gain or loss is recognised
in profit and loss for the year.
The Group does not recognise consumer financing income contract on receivables that are overdue
more than three months. The interest income previously recognised during three (3) months but not
yet collected is reversed against interest income. Such income is recognised only when the overdue
receivable is collected.

2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(xi) Financing receivables (Cont’d)
(b) Net investment in financing leases
Net investment in financing leases represents financing lease receivables plus the guaranteed residual
value at the end of the lease period and net of unearned financing lease income, security deposits and
allowances for impairment losses. The difference between gross lease receivables and the present value
of the lease receivable is recognised as unearned financing lease income.
Unearned financing lease income is recognised as financing lease income based on a constant rate on
the net investment using effective interest rate.
(c) Other financing receivables
Other financing receivables are factoring receivables purchased from other companies, without recourse.
Other factoring receivables are initially measured at the purchase price, net of directly attributable
transaction costs. They are presented net of purchase price, unearned financing income and allowance
for impairment loss on other factoring receivables.
Unearned income on other financing receivables, which is the excess of the aggregate instalment
payments to be received from the consumers over the principal amount financed, plus or deducted
with the financing process administration fees or expenses, is recognised as income over the term of
the respective agreement using effective interest rate method.
(xii) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and in bank, short term deposits and other short-term
investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of placement or purchase that are subject to
insignificant risk of changes in their fair value and are used by the Group in the management of its short term
commitment.
(xiii) Financial liabilities
The Group’s financial liabilities include loans and borrowings, debt securities (including bond), obligations under
finance leases and trade and other payables.
Financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual agreements of the
instrument. All interest-related charges are recognised as an expense in “finance costs” in the profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are de-recognised if the Group’s obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged
or cancelled.
Borrowings and debt securities
Borrowings and debt securities are recognised initially at fair value of proceeds received less attributable
transaction costs, if any. Borrowings and debt securities are subsequently stated at amortised cost which is the
initial fair value less any principal repayments. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs)
and the redemption value is taken to the profit or loss over the period of the borrowings and debt securities
using the effective interest method. Interest expense is chargeable on the amortised cost over the period of
the borrowings and debt securities using the effective interest method.

(xiii) Financial liabilities (Cont’d)
Gains and losses are recognised in the profit or loss when the liabilities are amortised as well as through the
amortisation process.
Borrowings and debt securities which are due to be settled within 12 months after the end of reporting period
are included in current liabilities in the statements of financial position even though the original terms were for a
period longer than 12 months and an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis
is completed after the end of reporting period. Borrowings and debt securities to be settled within the Group’s
normal operating cycle are classified as current. Other borrowings due to be settled more than 12 months
after the end of reporting period are included in non-current liabilities in the statements of financial position.
Convertible bonds
Convertible bonds that can be converted into share capital where the number of shares issued does not
vary with changes in fair value of the bonds are accounted for as compound financial instruments. The gross
proceeds are allocated to the equity and liability components, with the equity component being assigned the
residual amount after deducting the fair value of the liability component from the fair value of the compound
financial instruments.
Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of convertible bonds is measured at amortised cost
using the effective interest method. The equity component of convertible bonds is not re-measured. When the
conversion option is exercised, its carrying amount will be transferred to the share capital. When the conversion
option lapses, its carrying amount is transferred to retained profits.
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value, and subsequently measured at amortised cost,
using the effective interest method. Finance lease liabilities are measured at initial value less the capital element
of lease repayments (see policy on finance leases).
Financial guarantees
A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse
the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with
the terms of a debt instrument.
(xiv) Foreclosed assets
Foreclosed assets acquired in conjunction with settlement of consumer financing receivables are stated at the
lower of related consumer financing receivables’ carrying value or net realisable value of foreclosed assets. The
difference between the carrying value and the net realisable value recorded as part of allowance for impairment
losses and loss on foreclosed assets and is recognised in profit or loss.
In case of default, the customer gives the right to the Group to sell the foreclosed assets or take any other
actions to settle the outstanding receivables. Customers are entitled to the positive differences between the
proceeds from sales of foreclosed assets and the outstanding consumer financing receivables. If the differences
are negative, the resulting losses are recognised in profit or loss.

(xv) Golf membership
Golf membership is measured initially at cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, golf membership is stated at
cost less any accumulated impairment losses, if any. The carrying amount of golf membership is reviewed
annually for impairment when an indicator of impairment arises during the reported period indicates that the
carrying value may not be recoverable.
The golf membership is assessed as having indefinite life and there is no foreseeable limit to the period over
which the memberships are expected to generate cash to the Group. The golf membership is tested for
impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment loss, if any.
(xvi) Share capital and treasury shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new ordinary
shares are deducted against the share capital account.
When any entity within the Group purchases the Company’s ordinary shares (“treasury shares”), the
consideration paid including any directly attributable incremental cost is presented as a component within equity
attributable to the Company’s equity holders, until they are cancelled, sold or reissued.
(xvii) Contract liabilities and contract assets
A contract liability is the obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Group has received
consideration (or an amount of consideration is due) from customer. If the customer pays consideration before
the Group transfers good or services to the customer, a contract liability is recognised when the payment is
made or the payment is due (whichever is earlier).
Contract liabilities are recognised as revenue when the Group performs under the contract.
A contract asset is the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services transferred to the customer. If
the Group performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration
or before payment is due, a contract asset is recognised for the earned consideration.
Costs to fulfil a contract are capitalised if the costs relate directly to the contract, generate or enhance
resources used in satisfying the contract and are expected to be recovered. Capitalised contract costs are
subsequently amortised on a systematic basis as the Group recognises the related revenue. An impairment
loss is recognised in the profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the capitalised contract costs
exceeds the remaining amount of consideration that the Group expects to receive in exchange for the services
to which the contract costs relate, less the costs that relate directly to providing the services and that have
not been recognised as expense.

(xviii) Leases (from 1 January 2019)
(i) The Group as lessee
The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of the contract. The Group
recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements
in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as leases with a lease term of twelve
months or less) and leases of low value assets. For these leases, the Group recognises the lease
payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another
systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which economic benefits from the leased
assets are consumed.
(a) Lease liability
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid
at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot
be readily determined, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate specific to the lessee. The
incremental borrowing rate is defined as the rate of interest that the lessee would have to pay
to borrow over a similar term and with a similar security the funds necessary to obtain an asset
of a similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise:
• fixed lease payments (including in-substance fixed payments), less any lease incentives;
• variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, initially measured using the
index or rate at the commencement date;
• the amount expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
• exercise price of purchase options, if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the
options; and
• payments of penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the exercise of
an option to terminate the lease.
Variable lease payments that are not based on an index or a rate are not included as part of the
measurement and initial recognition of the lease liability. The Group shall recognise those lease
payments in profit or loss in the periods that trigger those lease payments.
For all contracts that contain both lease and non-lease components, the Group has elected to not
separate lease and non-lease components and account these as one single lease component.
The lease liabilities are presented as a separate line item in the statement of financial position.
The lease liability is subsequently measured at amortised cost, by increasing the carrying amount
to reflect interest on the lease liability (using the effective interest method) and by reducing the
carrying amount to reflect the lease payments made.

(xviii) Leases (from 1 January 2019) (Cont’d)
(i) The Group as lessee (Cont’d)
(a) Lease liability (Cont’d)
The Group remeasures the lease liability (with a corresponding adjustment to the related
right-of-use asset or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has already
been reduced to nil) whenever:
• the lease term has changed or there is a significant event or change in circumstances
resulting in a change in the assessment of exercise of a purchase option, in which case
the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using a revised
discount rate;
• the lease payments change due to changes in an index or rate or a change in expected
payment under a guaranteed residual value, in which cases the lease liability is
remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using the initial discount rate
(unless the lease payments change is due to a change in a floating interest rate, in which
case a revised discount rate is used); or
• a lease contract is modified and the lease modification is not accounted for as a separate
lease, in which case the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease
payments using a revised discount rate at the effective date of the modification.
(b) Right-of-use assets
The right-of-use asset comprises the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability, lease
payments made at or before the commencement day, less any lease incentives received and
any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation
and impairment losses.
Whenever the Group incurs an obligation for costs to dismantle and remove a leased asset,
restore the site on which it is located or restore the underlying asset to the condition required
by the terms and conditions of the lease, a provision is recognised and measured under
SFRS(I) 1-37. To the extent that the costs relate to a right-of-use asset, the costs are included
in the related right-of-use asset, unless those costs are incurred to produce inventories.

(i) The Group as lessee (Cont’d)
(b) Right-of-use assets (Cont’d)
Depreciation on right-of-use assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their
depreciable amounts over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset,
as follows:
Years
Office and building 2-10Transportation equipment and motor vehicles 1-30
If a lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset or the cost of the right-of-use asset
reflects that the Group expects to exercise a purchase option, the related right-of-use asset
is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying asset. The depreciation starts at the
commencement date of the lease.
The right-of-use assets are presented as a separate line item in the statement of financial
position.
The Group applies SFRS(I) 1-36 to determine whether a right-of-use asset is impaired and
accounts for any identified impairment loss.
(ii) The Group as lessor
Generally, the accounting policies applicable to the Group as a lessor in the comparative period were
not different from SFRS(I) 16, except for the classification of the sublease entered into that resulted in
a finance lease classification.
When the Group acts as a lessor, it determines at lease inception whether each lease is a finance lease
or an operating lease.
To classify each lease, the Group makes an overall assessment of whether the lease transfers
substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset. If this is the
case, then the lease is a finance lease; if not, then it is an operating lease. As part of this assessment,
the Group considers certain indicators such as whether the lease is for the major part of the economic
life of the asset.
At inception or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the
consideration in the contract to each lease component on the basis of their relative stand-alone prices.
If an arrangement contains lease and non-lease components, then the Group applies SFRS(I) 15 to
allocate the consideration in the contract.
The Group applies the derecognition and impairment requirements in SFRS(I) 9 to the net investment in
the lease. The Group further regularly reviews estimated unguaranteed residual values used in calculating
the gross investment in the lease.
The Group recognises lease payments received from investment property under operating leases as
income on a straight-line basis over the lease term within “revenue” in profit or loss. Rental income from
subleased property is recognised within “other income” in profit or loss.

(ii) The Group as lessor (Cont’d)
Intermediate lessor in sublease
When the Group is an intermediate lessor, it accounts for its interests in the head lease and the sublease
separately. It assesses the lease classification of a sublease with reference to the right-of-use asset
arising from the head lease, not with reference to the underlying asset. If a head lease is a short-term
lease to which the Group applies the recognition exemption, then it classifies the sublease as an
operating lease.
When the sublease is assessed as a finance lease, the Group derecognises the right-of-use asset relating
to the head lease that it transfers to the sublessee and recognised the net investment in the sublease
within “finance lease receivables” in the statement of financial position. Any differences between the
right-of-use asset derecognised and the net investment in sublease is recognised in profit or loss. Lease
liability relating to the head lease is retained in the statement of financial position, which represents the
lease payments owed to the head lessor.
Where the Group is the lessee
Finance leases
Where assets are financed by lease agreements that give rights approximating to ownership, the assets are
capitalised as if they had been purchased outright at values equivalent to the lower of the fair values of the
leased assets and the present value of the total minimum lease payments during the periods of the leases.
The corresponding lease commitments are included under liabilities. The excess of lease payments over the
recorded lease obligations are treated as finance charges which are amortised over each lease to give a
constant effective rate of charge on the remaining balance of the obligation.
The leased assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as detailed in the
accounting policy on “Property, plant and equipment”.
Operating leases
Rentals on operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease
incentives, if any, are recognised as an integral part of the net consideration agreed for the use of the leased
asset. Penalty payments on early termination, if any, are recognised in the profit or loss when incurred.
Contingent rents are mainly determined as a percentage of revenue in excess of a specified amount during the
month. They are charged to the profit or loss when incurred.

Where the Group is the lessor
Finance leases
Where assets are leased out under a finance lease, the present value of the lease payments is recognised as a
receivable. The difference between the gross receivable and the present value of the receivable is recognised
as unearned finance income. Lease income is recognised over the lease term using the net investment method,
which reflects a constant periodic rate of return.
Operating leases
Assets leased out under operating leases are included in investment properties and are stated at revalued
amounts and not depreciated. Rental income (net of any incentives given to lessees) is recognised on a
straight-line basis over the lease term.
(xix) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are
subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The accounting for subsequent
changes in fair value depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the
nature of the item being hedged. The Group designates certain derivatives as either:
• hedges of the fair value of recognised assets or liabilities or a firm commitment (fair value hedges)
• hedges of a particular risk associated with the cash flows of recognised assets and liabilities and highly
probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges), or
• hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation (net investment hedges).
At inception of the hedge relationship, the Group documents the economic relationship between hedging
instruments and hedged items including whether changes in the cash flows of the hedging instruments are
expected to offset changes in the cash flows of hedged items. The Group documents its risk management
objective and strategy for undertaking its hedge transactions.
The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining
maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months; it is classified as a current asset or liability when the
remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are classified as a current
asset or liability.

(xix) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities (Cont’d)
Cash flow hedges that qualify for hedge accounting
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges is recognised in the cash flow hedge reserve within equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective
portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss, within other gains/(losses).
When option contracts are used to hedge forecast transactions, the Group designates only the intrinsic value
of the options as the hedging instrument.
Gains or losses relating to the effective portion of the change in intrinsic value of the options are recognised
in the cash flow hedge reserve within equity. The changes in the time value of the options that relate to the
hedged item (“aligned time value”) are recognised within OCI in the costs of hedging reserve within equity.
When forward contracts are used to hedge forecast transactions, the Group generally designates only the
change in fair value of the forward contract related to the spot component as the hedging instrument. Gains
or losses relating to the effective portion of the change in the spot component of the forward contracts are
recognised in the cash flow hedge reserve within equity. The change in the forward element of the contract
that relates to the hedged item (“aligned forward element”) is recognised within OCI in the costs of hedging
reserve within equity. In some cases, the entity may designate the full change in fair value of the forward
contract (including forward points) as the hedging instrument. In such cases, the gains or losses relating to
the effective portion of the change in fair value of the entire forward contract are recognised in the cash flow
hedge reserve within equity.
Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss, as
follows:
• Where the hedged item subsequently results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (such as inventory),
both the deferred hedging gains and losses and the deferred time value of the option contracts or deferred
forward points, if any, are included within the initial cost of the asset. The deferred amounts are ultimately
recognised in profit or loss as the hedged item affects profit or loss (for example through cost of sales).
• The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of the interest rate swaps hedging variable rate
borrowings is recognised in profit or loss within finance cost at the same time as the interest expense
on the hedged borrowings.
When a hedging instrument expires, or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for
hedge accounting, any cumulative deferred gain or loss and deferred costs of hedging in equity at that time
remains in equity until the forecast transaction occurs, resulting in the recognition of a non-financial asset such
as inventory. When the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss and
deferred costs of hedging that were reported in equity are immediately reclassified to profit or loss.

(xix) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities (Cont’d)
Net investment hedges
Hedges of net investments in foreign operations are accounted for similarly to cash flow hedges. Any gain or loss
on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge is recognised in other comprehensive
income and accumulated in reserves in equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised
immediately in profit or loss within other gains/(losses).
Gains and losses accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss when the foreign operation is partially
disposed of or sold.
Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting
Certain derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of any derivative
instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in profit or loss and are
included in other gains/(losses).
(xx) Income tax
Current income tax for current and prior periods is recognised at the amount expected to be paid to or
recovered from the tax authorities, using the tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively
enacted by the end of reporting period.
Based on Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia (RI) No. 71/2008 dated 4 November 2008,
companies whose main activity is sales of land and buildings, is subject to final tax for each payment on sales
of land and factory (including condominiums and cottages) starting January 1, 2009.
Based on Government Regulation of RI No. 5/2002 dated March 23, 2002, each rental payment on the rental
of buildings is subject to final tax of 10% from the gross rental amount starting May 1, 2002.
Deferred income tax is recognised for all temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements except when the deferred income tax arises
from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination
and affects neither accounting or taxable profit or loss at the time of the transaction.
A deferred income tax liability is recognised on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries,
associates and joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the
temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
A deferred income tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be
available against which the deductible temporary differences and tax losses can be utilised.

(xx) Income tax (Cont’d)
Deferred income tax is measured:
(i) realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been
enacted or substantively enacted by the end of reporting period; and
(ii) based on the tax consequence that will follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end
of reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amounts of its assets and liabilities.
Current and deferred income taxes are recognised as income or expense in the profit or loss, except to the
extent that the tax arises from a business combination or a transaction which is recognised either in other
comprehensive income or directly in equity. Deferred tax arising from a business combination is adjusted
against goodwill on acquisition.
(xxi) Employee benefits
Pension obligations
The Group participates in national pension schemes as defined by the laws of the countries in which it operates.
As required by Indonesian Law, the Group makes contributions to the defined contributions state pension
scheme, Jamsostek contributions, which are recognised as compensation expense in the same period as the
employment that gives rise to the contributions. The ASTEK fund from Jamsostek contributions is responsible
for the entire insurance claim relating to accidents incurred by the employees at the work place and for the
entire retirement benefit obligations of the related employees under the said state pension scheme.
The Group also makes contributions to a defined contribution pension plan which is administered by legal
entity, “Dana Pensiun Lembaga Keuangan Indolife Pensiontama” and “Dana Pensiun Indomobil Group” for
certain employees. The contributions are recognised as an expense in the same period as the employment
that gives rise to the contributions.
The Company and its subsidiaries operating in Singapore contribute to the Central Provident Fund, a defined
contribution plan regulated and managed by the Government of Singapore, which applies to the majority of the
employees. The contributions to the national pension scheme are charged to the profit or loss in the period to
which the contributions relate.
Employee leave entitlements
Employee entitlements to annual leave are recognised when they accrue to employees. Accrual is made for

period.

(xxi) Employee benefits (Cont’d)
Provisions for employee service entitlements
The Group has recognised unfunded employee benefits liability in accordance with Indonesian Labor Law
No. 13/2003 dated 25 March 2003 (“the Law”).
The calculation is performed annually by qualified actuarists using the projected unit credit method. When the
calculation results in a benefit to the Group, the recognised asset is limited to the present value of economic
benefits available in the form of any future refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the
plan. In order to calculate the present value of economic benefits, consideration is given to any minimum
funding requirements that apply to any plan in the Group. An economic benefit is available to the Group if it is
realisable during the life of the plan, or on settlement of the plan liabilities.
Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability comprise actuarial gains and losses, the return on plan
assets (excluding interest) and the effect of the asset ceiling (if any, excluding interest). The Group recognises
them immediately in other comprehensive income and all expenses related to defined benefit plans in employee
benefits expense in profit or loss.
When the benefits of a plan are changed, or when a plan is curtailed, the portion of the changed benefit related
to past service by employees, or the gain or loss on curtailment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss
when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs.
The Group recognises gains and losses on the settlement of a defined benefit plan when the settlement occurs.
The gain or loss on settlement is the difference between the present value of the defined benefit obligation being
settled as determined on the date of settlement and the settlement price, including any plan assets transferred
and any payments made directly by the Group in connection with the settlement.
(xxii) Impairment of non-financial assets
The carrying amounts of the Company’s and Group’s non-financial assets subject to impairment are reviewed
at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such
indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.
If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of the individual asset, then the recoverable amount of
the cash-generating unit to which the assets belong will be identified.
For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately
identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). As a result, some assets are tested individually for impairment
and some are tested at cash-generating unit level. Goodwill is allocated to those cash-generating units that are
expected to benefit from synergies of the related business combination and represent the lowest level within
the Company at which management controls the related cash flows.
Individual assets or cash-generating units that include goodwill or other intangible assets with an indefinite
useful life or those not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually. All individual assets or
cash-generating units are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

2(d) Significant accounting policies (Cont’d)
(xxii) Impairment of non-financial assets (Cont’d)
An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s or cash-generating unit’s carrying amount
exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount represents the value-in-use based on an internal
discounted cash flow calculation. Impairment losses recognised for cash-generating units, to which goodwill
has been allocated, are credited initially to the carrying amount of goodwill. Any remaining impairment loss is
charged pro rata to the other assets in the cash-generating unit. With the exception of goodwill, all assets are
subsequently reassessed for indications that an impairment loss previously recognised may no longer exist.
Any impairment loss is charged to the profit or loss unless it reverses a previous revaluation in which case it
is charged to equity.
With the exception of goodwill,
• An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the
recoverable amount or when there is an indication that the impairment loss recognised for the asset no
longer exists or decreases.
• An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the
carrying amount that would have been determined if no impairment loss had been recognised.
• A reversal of an impairment loss on a revalued asset is credited directly to equity under the heading
revaluation surplus. However, to the extent that an impairment loss on the same revalued assets was
previously recognised as an expense in the profit or loss, a reversal of that impairment loss is recognised
as income in the profit or loss.
An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed, even if it relates to impairment loss recognised in
an interim period that would have been reduced or avoided had the impairment assessment been made at a
subsequent reporting or end of reporting period.

(xxiv) Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised when the Group satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good
or extending a service to the customer, which is when the customer obtains control of the good or derived
benefits from the usage of the service. A performance obligation may be satisfied at a point in time or over
time. If a performance obligation is satisfied over time, the revenue is recognised based on the percentage of
completion reflecting the progress towards complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. The amount
of revenue recognised is the amount allocated to the satisfied performance obligation.
Revenue is measured based on the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for
transferring promised goods or services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

(g) Sales of land and factory
The Group sells land for development and factory in the ordinary course of business. Revenue is
recognised at a point of time when the control over the property had been transferred to the customer,
which coincides with the transfer of the legal title, as the satisfaction of the performance obligation. In
cases where the performance obligation includes specific criteria to be fulfilled in stages, the revenue
is recognised over time based on the stages of completion reflecting the progress towards complete
satisfaction of that performance obligation.
(h) Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time-apportioned basis using the effective interest rate method.
(i) Dividends
Dividend income is recognised when the shareholders’ right to receive the payment is established.
(j) Government grants
Government grants are recognised at their fair value where there is reasonable assurance that the grant
will be received and attaching conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense
item, it is recognised in the profit and loss account over the period necessary to match them on a
systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate.
(xxv) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying
asset are recognised as part of the cost of the related asset. Otherwise, borrowing costs are recognised as
expenses when incurred. Borrowing costs consist of interests and other financing charges that the Group incurs
in connection with the borrowing of funds.
Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the qualifying asset for its intended
use are in progress and the expenditures for the qualifying asset and the borrowing costs have been incurred.
Capitalisation of borrowing costs ceases when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the qualifying
assets are substantially completed for their intended use.
Foreign exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings are capitalised to the extent that they
are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs.
(xxvi) Bond issuance costs
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of bonds by the Group were deferred and are being amortised
using the effective interest rate method over the term of the bonds.

(xxvii) Functional currencies
Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each entity in the Group are measured using the currency of the
primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“functional currency”). The financial statements
of the Company and the Group are presented in Singapore Dollar, which is also the functional currency of the
Company.
(xxviii) Conversion of foreign currencies
Transactions and balances
Transactions in a currency other than the functional currency (“foreign currency”) are translated into the
functional currency using the exchange rates at the date of the transactions. Currency translation differences
resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation of monetary assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies at the closing rates as at the end of reporting period are recognised in the
profit or loss. However, in the consolidated financial statements, currency translation differences arising from
borrowings in foreign currencies and other currency instruments designed and qualifying as net investment
hedged and net investment in foreign operations are recognised in other comprehensive income and
accumulated in the translation reserve.
When a foreign operation is disposed of or any borrowings forming part of the net investment of the foreign
operation are repaid, a proportionate share of the accumulated translation differences is reclassified to profit
or loss, as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
Foreign exchange gains and losses that relate to borrowings are presented in the consolidated statement of
comprehensive income within “finance costs”. Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis
as either other income or other operating expense depending on whether foreign currency movements are in
a net gain or net loss position.
Non-monetary items measured at fair values in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rates at
the date when the fair values are determined.
Group entities
The results and financial position of all the entities within the Group that have a functional currency different
from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
(i) Assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rates at the end of the reporting period;
(ii) Income and expenses for each statements presenting profit or loss and other comprehensive income
(i.e. including comparatives shall be translated at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions; and
(iii) All resulting currency translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and
accumulated in the translation reserve.

3 Intangible assets (Cont’d)
a. Goodwill
Impairment test for goodwill
For the purpose of goodwill impairment testing, the carrying amount of goodwill is allocated to the automotive
business segments.
Summary of the goodwill allocation is as follows:–
2019 2018
The Group $’000 $’000
Attributable to acquisition of PT IMAS group 427,460 483,458
427,460 483,458
Management determined that PT IMAS group represents the Group’s smallest cash-generating units (“CGU”).
PT IMAS group is primarily involved in automotive business.
The recoverable amount of a CGU was determined based on value-in-use calculation. The value-in-use
calculation is a discounted cash flow model using cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved
by management covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond five-year period were extrapolated using the
estimated growth rates stated below.
Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations:
2019 2018
Automotive Automotive
Gross margin(1) 19.49% to 22.19% 19.65% to 19.95%
Growth rate(2) 4.85% 5.00%
Discount rate(3) 10.91% 10.12%
(1) Budgeted gross margin(2) Weighted average growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the budgeted period(3) Pre-tax discount rate applied to the pre-tax cash flows projections
Management determined budgeted gross margin based on past performance and its expectations of the market
development. The weighted average growth rates reflected management’s forecast relating to the automotive
segment. The discount rates used were pre-tax and reflected specific risks relating to the automotive segment.
In 2019, an impairment loss of S$100,100,000 (2018: S$Nil) (Note 31) is charged to “Other operating expenses”
in profit or loss. This impairment charge in 2019 has arisen from the automotive segment as the recoverable
amount of the CGU is 21% lower than its carrying amount due to decline in sales of vehicle in Indonesia as a
result of economic slowdown and declining domestic consumption.
b. Amortisation expense included in the profit or loss is analysed as follows:
2019 2018
The Group $’000 $’000
General and administrative expenses (Note 31) 16,316 16,309
16,316 16,309

equipment of the Group are fully recoverable, and hence no impairment is necessary.

approved by management covering a five-year period. Cash flows beyond five-year period were extrapolated using
the estimated growth rates stated below.
Management determined that PT Bintan Inti Industrial Estate (“PT BIIE”) represents the Group’s smallest cash-
generating units, PT BIIE is involved in the development and management of industrial estate.
Key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations:
2019 2018

Growth rate(2) 2.98% to 4.85% 4.20% to 5.12%
Discount rate(3) 9.34% to 11.10% 10.12% to 11.56%

The consumer financing debtors relate primarily to the Group’s motor vehicle and motorcycle financing. Before
accepting new customers, the Group assesses the potential customers’ credit worthiness and sets credit limits
by using its internal systems. The receivables given to the customers for financing of vehicles are secured by
Certificates of Ownership (BPKB) or other documents of ownership which give the Group the right to sell the
repossessed collateral or take any other action to settle the outstanding debt.
The loan period ranges from 12 to 36 months for motorcycles, 12 to 60 months for passenger cars and 12 to
36 months for commercial vehicles and heavy equipment and machinery. Default or delinquency in payment
is considered an indicator that the debtor balances are impaired. An allowance for impairment is made based
on the estimated irrecoverable amount by reference to past default experience. The Group has the right to
repossess the assets whenever its customers default on their instalment obligations. It usually exercises its right
if the loan has been overdue for 30 days or longer for motorcycle and passenger car and 60 days or longer for
commercial vehicle and heavy equipment and machinery. Management has considered the balances against
which collective impairment provision is made as impaired.

The reversal of allowance was due to the doubtful debts recovered from receivables which were previously provided for.
The average credit period for external and related parties on sales of goods and services rendered varies among the
Group’s businesses in which it is not more than 90 days and do not bear any interest. The credit quality of trade and
other receivables is assessed based on credit policies established by the individual Group businesses. Significant
financial difficulties of a trade and other debtor, probability that the trade and other debtor will enter bankruptcy or
delinquency in payment are considered indicators that the trade and other debtor is impaired and an allowance for
impairment is made based on the estimated irrecoverable amount determined by reference to past default experience.
As at 31 December 2019, certain trade and other receivables amounting to approximately S$348 million (2018 – S$325
million) were pledged to banks to secure borrowing and credit facilities of the Group (Note 19 (i) and (iii)) and debt
securities (Note 20).
The non-trade amount owing by subsidiaries represents (i) interest bearing loans at 1.75% per annum + 1 month
SIBOR rate, and (ii) advanced payment of expenses which are non-interest bearing. These balances are unsecured
and repayable on demand.
The non-trade amount owing by related parties represents mainly advanced payment of expenses, is non-interest
bearing, unsecured and repayable on demand.
The related parties are corporate entities who are subject to common control or common significant influence by a
shareholder of the Company.

or loss. This is generally within three months from the end of the reporting period. For those cross currency swaps
used to hedge highly probable forecast foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment, fair value gains
and losses are included in the cost of the assets and recognised in profit or loss over their estimated useful lives as
part of depreciation expense.

The Group
The basic loss per share is calculated based on the consolidated losses attributable to owners of the parent divided
by the weighted average number of shares in issue of 5,344,834,236 (2018 – 5,337,635,225) shares during the
financial year.
Fully diluted loss per share was calculated on the consolidated losses attributable to owners of the parent divided by
5,594,834,236 (2018 – 5,587,635,225) ordinary shares. The number of ordinary shares is calculated based on the
weighted average number of shares in issue during the financial year adjusted for the effects of the dilutive issuable
shares from the convertible bond. Dilutive potential ordinary shares are deemed to have been converted into ordinary
shares at the beginning of the year or if later, the date of the issue of the potential ordinary shares.
The following tables reflect the profit or loss and share data used in the computation of basic and diluted loss per
share for the years ended 31 December:

(ii) The Group as lessor
Investment property
Operating leases, in which the Group is the lessor, relate to investment property (Note 6) owned by the Group
with lease terms of between 2 to 16 years. The operating lease contract contains market review clauses in
the event that the lessee exercises its option to renew. The lessee does not have an option to purchase the
property at the expiry of the lease period.
These leases are classified as operating lease because the risk and rewards incidental to ownership of the
assets are not substantially transferred. The unguaranteed residual values do not represent a significant risk to
the Group, as they relate to properties which are located in locations with constant increase in value over the
last 5 years. The Group has not identified any indications that this situation will change.
The Group’s revenue from rental income received on the investment properties are disclosed in Note 6.
The future minimum rental receivable under non-cancellable operating leases contracted for the reporting date

38 Segment information (Cont’d)
(b) Geographical segments
The Group operates mainly in Indonesia. Accordingly, analysis by geographical segments is not presented.

All segment revenue and expense are directly attributable to the segments.
(d) Segment assets and liabilities
Segment assets include all operating assets and consist principally of trade and other receivables, land
inventories, other inventories, financing receivables, investment properties and property, plant and equipment,
net of allowances and provisions. While most assets can be directly attributed to individual segments, the
carrying amount of certain assets used jointly by two or more segments is allocated on a reasonable basis.

Segment assets and liabilities do not include cash and cash equivalents, notes receivables, deferred tax assets,
deferred tax liabilities, current tax payable, loans and borrowings.
The Group does not have any major customers.
39 Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Company and the Group have financial risk management policies setting out the Company’s and the Group’s
overall business strategies and its risk management philosophy. The Company and the Group are exposed to financial
risks arising from its diversified operations and the use of financial instruments. The financial risks included market
price risk, foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s and the Group’s overall
risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets on the Company’s and the Group’s
financial performance. The Company and the Group use financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps and
cross-currency swaps to hedge certain risk exposures.
The Company co-ordinates, under the directions of the directors, financial risk management policies and their
implementation on a group-wide basis. The Group’s policies are designed to manage the financial impact of fluctuations
in interest rates and exchange rates and to minimise the Group’s financial risks. It is the Group’s policy not to enter
into derivative transactions for speculative purposes. The notional amounts and fair values of derivative financial
instruments at 31 December 2019 are disclosed in Note 26.
There has been no change to the Company’s and the Group’s exposure to these financial risks or the manner in which
it manages and measures the risk. Market risk exposures are measured using sensitivity analysis indicated below.
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2019
GALLANT VENTURE LTD Annual Report 2019190
39 Financial risk management objectives and policies (Cont’d)
(a) Market risk
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity
prices will have on the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of
market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while
optimising the return on risk.
(i) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk arising from the changes in market interest rates which leads to the fluctuation
of the fair value or future cash flows of the financial instruments.
The Group is financed through interest-bearing bank loans, other borrowings such as shareholders’
loans, and advances from related parties and debt securities. Therefore, the Group’s exposures to
market risk for changes in interest rates relate primarily to its long-term borrowings obligations and
interest-bearing assets and liabilities. The Group’s policy is to obtain the most favourable interest rates
available without increasing its foreign currency exposure by managing its interest cost using a mixture
of fixed and variable rate debts and long and short-term borrowings. The Group actively reviews its debt
portfolio and evaluates the interest rates are in line with the changes in interest rate which is relevant in
the money market. The Group also uses hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps to minimise its
exposure to interest rate volatility. The Group designates these interest rate swaps and cross currency
interest rate swap as cash flow hedges (Note 26).
Sensitivity analysis for interest rate risk
At the end of reporting period, if Singapore Dollar, United States Dollar and Indonesian Rupiah interest
rates had been 50 (2018 – 50) basis points lower/higher with all other variables held constant, the
Group’s profit/(loss) net of tax would have been higher/lower by the amounts shown below, arising
mainly as a result of lower/higher interest expense on floating rate borrowings.

39 Financial risk management objectives and policies (Cont’d)
(a) Market risk (Cont’d)
(ii) Foreign exchange risk
Currency risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign
exchange rates. Currency risk arises when transactions are denominated in foreign currencies.
The Group has transactional currency exposures arising primarily from purchases, assets and liabilities
which arise from daily operations that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional
currencies of group entities, primarily Singapore Dollar (SGD) and Indonesian Rupiah (IDR). The foreign
currencies in which these transactions are denominated are mainly United States Dollar (USD) and
Euro (EURO).
The Company and the Group also hold cash and cash equivalents denominated in foreign currencies
for working capital purposes. At the end of reporting period, such foreign currency balances (mainly in
IDR and USD) amount to S$899,000 (2018 – S$159,000) and S$218,267,000 (2018 – S$211,234,000)
for the Company and the Group respectively.
The Group maintains a natural hedge, whenever possible by borrowing in the currency of the country in
which its property or investment is located or by borrowing in currencies that match the future revenue
streams to be generated from its investments. The Group also enters into cross currency swaps to
hedge the foreign exchange risk of its loans denominated in foreign currency and these swaps are
designated as cash flow hedges (Note 26).
Foreign exchange exposures in transactional currencies other than functional currencies of the operating
entities are kept to an acceptable level.
In relation to its investments in foreign subsidiaries whose net assets are exposed to currency translation
risk and which are held for long term investment purposes, the differences arising from such translation
are recorded under the currency translation reserves. These translation differences are reviewed and
monitored on a regular basis.
Sensitivity analysis
The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in foreign currencies
exchange rate, with all other variables held constant, of the Group’s loss before tax (due to changes in
the fair value of monetary assets and liabilities).

(iii) Price risk
Price risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices.
The Group is exposed to market price risks arising from its investments quoted on the IDX in Indonesia.
They are held for strategic rather than trading purposes. The Group does not actively trade equity
investments.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the
Company or the Group to incur a financial loss. For the subsidiaries engaging in consumer financing, a financial
loss will arise when the debtor does not meet its contractual obligation.
The financial assets that potentially subject the Group to significant concentration of credit risk consist principally
of cash and bank balances, trade and other receivables, financing receivables, loan and notes receivables. For
trade receivables, the Company and the Group adopt the policy of dealing only with customers of appropriate
credit history, and obtaining sufficient security where appropriate to mitigate credit risk. For other financial
assets, the Company and the Group adopt the policy of dealing only with high credit quality counterparties.

39 Financial risk management objectives and policies (Cont’d)
(b) Credit risk (Cont’d)
The Company’s and the Group’s objectives are to seek continual growth while minimising losses incurred due
to increased credit risk exposure.
The Group has in place credit policies and procedures to ensure the ongoing credit evaluation and active
account monitoring. Credit risk which is encountered by the Group comes from credits given to customers. To
reduce this risk, there is a policy to ensure the product sales are to be made to customers who can be trusted
and proven to have a good credit history and pass the credit verification. The Group monitors the receivable
balance continuously to maximise installment billings and reduce the possibility of doubtful accounts.
The Group’s exposures to credit risk arise from default of other parties, with maximum exposure equal to
the carrying amount of these instruments. At the reporting date, there were no significant concentrations of
credit risk other than the loan receivable, financing receivables, notes receivables and interest receivables as
disclosed in Note 9 and Note 14.
The Company’s and the Group’s major classes of financial assets are bank deposits, trade and other receivables
and financing receivables. Cash is held with financial institutions of good standing/established financial
institutions/reputable financial institutions. Further details of credit risks on financing receivables and trade and
other receivables are disclosed in Note 9 and Note 14 respectively.
The Company gives corporate guarantees to banks for the bank borrowings of its subsidiaries. The maximum
exposure of the Company in respect of these guarantees at the reporting date is the amount of S$16,000,000
(2018 – S$20,000,000). At the reporting date, the Company has considered it is not probable that a claim will
be made against the Company under such guarantees.
There is no impact on the corporate guarantee as there are no differential rates given by the financial institutions.
Financial assets
The Group applies the SFRS(I) 9 expected credit losses which uses either a 12-month or a lifetime expected
credit losses depending on the level of credit risk to measuring loss allowance for all trade receivables, financing
receivables and other financial assets.
The Group and Company apply the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which uses a
lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. For all other financial assets, the Group and Company
apply the general approach.
While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements, the identified impairment
loss was immaterial.
For the non-trade intercompany balances, it is considered to have low credit risk, and the loss allowance
recognised during the period was therefore limited to 12 months expected credit losses. Management consider
“low credit risk” when they have a low risk of default and the issuer has a strong capacity to meet its contractual
cash flows obligations in the near term.

(b) Credit risk (Cont’d)
Financial assets (Cont’d)
To measure the expected credit losses, trade receivables and financing receivables have been grouped based
on shared credit risk characteristics and days past due.
The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over a period of 12 months for trade
receivables and over a period of 96 months for financing receivables before 31 December 2019 or 1 January
2019 respectively and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical
loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting
the ability of the customers to settle the receivables.
The receivables with “non-performing” credit risk rating has been provided for, while the receivables with
“performing” credit risk rating are not impaired.
On that basis, the loss allowance as at 31 December 2019 and 2018 was determined as follows for both trade
receivables and financing receivables:

(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company and the Group will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet
commitments associated with financial instruments that are settled by delivering cash or other financial assets.
Liquidity risk may result from an inability to sell a financial asset quickly at close to its fair value.
The Company’s and the Group’s exposure to liquidity risk arise primarily from mismatches of the maturities
of financial assets and liabilities. The Group maintains a balance between continuity of accounts receivable
collectability and flexibility through the use of borrowings, debt securities and stand-by credit facilities.

cost-effective manner.
The Company is able to raise funds through bank borrowings and capital market, and dividend income from
subsidiaries to settle its current liabilities for the next twelve months.
(d) Project development risk
Construction delays can result in loss of revenue. The failure to complete construction of a project according to
its planned specifications or schedule may result in liabilities, reduce project efficiency and lower returns. The
Group manages this risk by closely monitoring the progress of all projects through all stages of construction.

40 Capital management
The Company’s and Group’s objectives when managing capital are:
(a) To safeguard the Company’s and the Group’s abilities to continue as a going concern;
(b) To support the Company’s and the Group’s stabilities and growth;
(c) To provide capital for the purpose of strengthening the Company’s and the Group’s risk management
capabilities; and
(d) To provide an adequate return to shareholders.
The Group actively and regularly reviews and manages its capital structure to ensure optimal capital structure
and shareholders’ returns, taking into consideration the future capital requirements of the Group and capital
efficiency, prevailing and projected profitability, projected operating cash flows, projected capital expenditures
and projected strategic investment opportunities. The Company and the Group currently do not adopt any
formal dividend policy.
The Company and the Group monitor capital net debt ratio, which is net debt divided by total capital plus net
debt. Net debt refers to all external borrowings including lease liabilities, less bank balances and short-term
deposits. Capital represents total equity of the Group. The capital net debt ratio is monitored both inclusive and
exclusive of the Group’s financial services companies, which by their nature are generally more leveraged than
the Group’s other businesses. The Company and the Group do not have a defined gearing ratio benchmark
or range.
The capital net debt ratios at 31 December 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

42 Fair value measurement
Definition of fair value
SFRS(I) define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Fair value hierarchy
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in the statements of financial position are grouped into
three levels of a fair value hierarchy. The three levels are defined based on the observability of significant inputs to
the measurement as follows:
• Level 1 : quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 : inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly or indirectly
• Level 3 : unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The following table shows the levels within the hierarchy of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a
recurring basis at 31 December 2019 and 31 December 2018.

42 Fair value measurement (Cont’d)
Fair value measurement of financial instruments
(i) Level 1 fair value measurements
The quoted equity instruments or available-for-sale equity investments held by the Group is traded in active
markets and is based on quoted market prices at the end of reporting period. The quoted market price used
for financial assets held by the Group is the current market price.
(ii) Level 2 fair value measurements
The Group’s derivatives consist of interest rate swap contracts and cross currency interest rate swap contracts.
These derivatives are valued using a valuation technique with market observable inputs. The most frequently
applied valuation techniques include forward pricing and swap models, using present value calculations. The
models incorporate various inputs including credit quality of counterparties, foreign exchange spot and forwards
rates, interest rate curves and forward rate curves. The Group held unquoted investments in shares of stock.
(iii) Level 3 fair value measurements
The Group held unquoted investments in shares of stock. The fair values are determined by reference to these
investments’ net assets values as stated in their audited financial statements, adjusted for lack of marketability
and related tax effects.
(iv) Fair value of financial instruments by classes that are not carried at fair value and whose carrying amounts are
reasonable approximation of fair value
The carrying amount of trade and other receivables (Note 14), current financing receivables (Note 9), cash and
cash equivalents (Note 15), trade and other payables (Note 24), current borrowings (Note 19) and current debt
securities (Note 20) are reasonable approximation of fair values due to their short term nature.
The carrying amounts of other non-current assets (Note 11), other non-current liabilities (Note 22) and non-
current borrowings (Note 19) and non-current debt securities (Note 20) are reasonable approximation of fair
values as their interest rate approximate the market lending rate.
(v) Non-financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value but for which fair value is disclosed
The Group’s investment properties and employee benefit liabilities are not measured at fair values but which
fair values are disclosed. They are classified under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The details on the fair
value of investment properties and employee benefit liabilities are disclosed in note 6 and 21.
The fair value of the investment properties is based on advice from firms of independent professional valuers
using the capitalisation method and/or market comparable. The valuations of the investment properties are
based on the highest and best use. Current use, unless there are any evidence to the contrary, is considered
highest and best use.

43 Adoption of new accounting standards
Adoption of SFRS(I) 16, Leases
SFRS(I) 16 Leases sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases,
eliminates the lessee’s classification of leases as either operating or finance leases and introduce a single lessee
accounting model.
The Group has adopted SFRS(I) 16 using the modified retrospective method of adoption with the date of initial
application of 1 January 2019 without restatement of comparative information on transition. Under this method, the
standard is applied retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognised at the date
of initial application.
The Group’s weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied to measure the Group’s lease liabilities recognised
in the consolidated statement of financial position on 1 January 2019 is 6.82%.
A reconciliation of the differences between the Group’s operating lease commitments previously disclosed in the
financial statements as at 31 December 2018 and the Group’s lease liabilities recognised in the statement of financial
position on 1 January 2019 is as follows:
